TH1 -
the caterer we had for last years party was just great - so when they sent us an e-mail in August saying they were already taking reservations for the month of December, we booked them for Dec 11. Who knew? seems in Az we never get great shows on a Fri or Sat night - those seem to always be in Las Vegas or LA - we usually get the Sunday or Monday night gigs here in Az. I'm still disappointed we won't see GPN here in Tempe, but it's making me look forward to the Radiators and Mule shows in SF and NOLA that much more.
sometimes we just NEED a great live music fix, and nothing else will fill that jones other than some intense jams.
