August 17, 2011 "You're gonna want me with a bat of an eye, Baby I feel lucky tonight"

It's tough to follow up a week like last week's birthday show, but this week's show was pretty awesome (if I do say so myself). I looked through the new music section thoroughly for this week's show and WOW! is there a lot of great new music put out this year. With new music and the fall coming up, it means there are lots of concerts coming up! I'm stoked for that - it helps with the end-of-summer blues. I will be gone for the next two weeks from the airwaves, but I'll be back in September just in time for FM-Phasis, CFCR's annual fundraiser, and the abundance of concerts. Take care until then!
