yeah, sweeet
should put it up on soundcloud or something

Lipstick Vogue …such a classic song on an album with so many good songs that it often gets overlooked

Thank YOU Twangirl. This was a fantastic set – when I heard the 3 O'Clock I couldn't believe it, and Klark Kent? Fantastic. Added to what was a great and surprising night (about 8 of the dozen friends I had there all decided to go last minute).
