Thank You Gifts
Wednesday, December 30, 2009
This note is for everyone that supported the show during our Fall Membership Drive:
We will be sending out the Thank You gifts shortly! There has been a bit of a delay with getting everything organized - mainly due to the holidays and our school commitments prior to that - but we are rolling now, and we will be sending them out within the next week. So expect a little something from us in the New Year! :)
Happy Holidays!
Dear Listener, Viewer, Fan, Friends:
Erin and I would like to wish you all the best for the holidays. Wherever you are, whatever you do, whoever you are with, may you enjoy this special time of year. Spread the peace and love of the season.

I just found out The Dutchess & The Duke are coming to Toronto on January 12th to play at Sneaky Dee's!
I am sure you are familiar with their song "Reservoir Park", especially if you listen to BTR on a regular basis, it has easily become one of my all time favorite songs so it makes it on to the playlists often.
In fact, their entire album is amazing! Please check out the myspace page and come out to see them live on January 12th.
Here is a video of the song "Mary", enjoy!
