Thanks to everyone who has donated to the " send BAGeL Radio to South By Southwest" fund drive. I am overwhelmed by your generosity and the sentiments that have accompanied the donations. It gives me the warm fuzzies to hear that BAGeL Radio means so much to so many of you. Before the tears well up, let's move on along, shall we?

Many thanks to LoveLikeFire for their awesome intimate mini-set during The Rumble at Harlot last night. They were great. Speaking of great, guest DJ AmpLive, took the reigns after the live rock and showed this DJ how it's done. He was phenomenal. I'd also like to give a shout out to the other sponsors of the event including The Owl Mag, Tankfarm Futuresounds, and SonicLiving, who have all played a big part in making The Rumble one of the coolest recurring events I have ever had the pleasure of being involved in.
