  08.31.06 | Permalink | 2 Comments

  It’s the Summer, so what better things is there to do in the Summer than get out and see a few concerts? In the past month, we’ve seen Chris Isaak, comedian Gilbert Gottfried, Robbie Fulks, and my brother-in-law’s step-brother’s Polka band. And each of them were awesome in their own way, and made [...]
