That’s hardly a bad thing, as songs like the above “Love Is All I Am” and the band’s clearly KKXT-91.7 FM-approved “When My Time Comes” (if you haven’t heard that song yet on KXT, you’re not listening, friend) more than prove.So many thanks then to Spune Productions for offering one DC9 reader (and a friend) to see this show for free. First person to shoot me an email right now with the word “My Time Comes!” in the subject line gets the free pair of tickets. It’s that easy. Good luck!
Update: Well, that was fast. Contest is over. Congrats to our winner.
