How awesome was it? I finally became a member of YEP after realizing all the great music I have witnessed because of them.
Listen here…
What I wanted to share is that if you did not get tickets to The New Pornos/Okkervil show on 4/12 yet, what are you waiting for? This could very well turn out to be the show of the year…
