This came up in my facebook memories <3. Anyways, special extended edition last Thursday as we were covering for Steve Williams’ show 9-11pm as well. Thank you to all you new friends and old ones for tuning in, tuning up, hanging out, etc., many thanks to Sharappa for all these videos and Natasha for the photons! The GoFundMe page to produce a live Musicians, Mentors, and Barroom Heroes album from the last season can be found here at gofundme.com/mmbrh ; please consider chipping in! (Or sharing with your social mediaites.) Half the proceeds will go to WHIV 102.3 FM New Orleans, the other half to the New Orleans Musicians’ Clinic in honor of Washboard Lissa.
