The Show That Is Not to Be Named

Hail, valued listeners! I, Father Angus, am running this here ship until Bad Sister Heidi shows up. Hence I dart from computer to mixing board to pile of CDs to players...like a hummingbird. A really big hummingbird that lives to bring you joy and, of course, the rock. So...

It's the South by Southwest Recap!!

This evening's experiment is a retrospective of the Reverend Velveteen's recent sojourn to Austin, Texas, the bigger, hotter Madison, Wisconsin, of the South. She will regale us with tales of days of music and mayhem stretching into nights of more music and even more mayhem that annually mark the South by Southwest music conference/festival/schmooze out. You will listen attentively, knowing at once that you are in the hands of a stylist, and rock.

There's a reason why she's "Bad Sister"...

And its' because she's a BAD influence. Tonight Father Angus is at the controls, but it's Bad Sister who has directed him to drive the bus over the cliff....and it's totally her weed, Mom. Honest. This always happens when Reverend Velveteen goes on a junket.
