A couple things...
Hey Folks,
Two quick things...first, Richard Thompson tickets went on sale today (May 4th) for his show up at the Fitzgerald in St. Paul on June 11th (a Monday night). Should be a great show.
And speaking of Richard Thompson--This Sunday's show will include nothing but RT. Matt Carlson (the smart guy from the dog show a month ago) sits in as the co-host and local Richard Thompson expert (or crazed fan depending on your perspective). Hope you'll tune in.
Have a great weekend,
Dave
