Don't Mess With The Bull, Young Man. You'll Get The Flyleaf.

If, say, you are a high schooler in Burleson--and that's clearly our target demographic here on DC9, I think--and you're about to, say, bring a flare gun to school and get yourself slapped with a Saturday detention, may I suggest you do so on the week of April 27?'Cause, on...

'Cause, on Saturday, May 2, Belton/Temple's own Flyleaf is totally playing a 2 p.m. show for an event called "Ignite" at your high school. And, really, there are worse ways to spend your Saturday afternoon when you're 14 to 18 years old, I'd say. Flyleaf frontwoman Lacey Mosley's got some pipes, man, and I'll be darned if the above track from the five-christians-in-a-band-but-not-in-a-christian-band ain't one hell of an earworm.

So, go ahead, Burleson high schoolers. See Flyleaf as you want to see it... In the simplest terms, in the most convenient definitions.

Sincerely Yours,
