I saw Mother Mother and Wooden Sky this weekend. Both acts played great, I think Wooden Sky sounded better but they didn`t have any technical difficulties like Mother Mother .

Anyone watch the debate last night? I did and would like to say that I`m glad they mentioned my good friend Mr Joe Plummer . He`s such a good guy, and rich too!! (PFFFT) I felt like Obama discussed the issues at hand and what his plan is for the future while John McCain concentrated more on making Obama look bad...and did not succeed. Now I know both of them are no saints or anything but come on I feel like McCain just looks into the camera and says nuthing but [...]
