Ah, I wish! Two friends are gettin hitched RT @softjunebreeze: @wilcassettes are you performing here this weekend? #

Intyview! RT @indiesouprunner Electro-pop funk-meister Alan Wilkis pumps up the jams http://tinyurl.com/nvp4r5 #fb #

Also, “thank you for being a friend” at the entrance… Only song I can think of is the theme song to “golden girls.” #

The hotel I’m staying at has a bunch of poorly-chosen quotes from songs on plaques, including “love in an elevator” IN THE ELEVATOR. #

What up, Cashville! Looking lovely as always! #
