Hi all -
I know summer’s not quite over, but for me it really is. I’ll be gone next week for the last road trip of the season, and then the following week, school starts and we all settle into a routine. Part of me is looking forward to it, but the other half will miss sleeping in late, basking in the sunshine, and general merriment. With all that in mind, I wanted to do something different on the show to celebrate. Nothing says summer like a July concert at Stubbs BBQ in Austin, TX…courtesy of your favorite band SPOON!
