end of an era

first off, i'd like to sincerly thank every single person that's made this show possible. in the almost 15 months the show was around, we had just under 70 guests on. i think that's pretty amazing for just being a college show. we got the chance to meet so many people and do a lot of cool things. it's seriously been a dream come true.
also, big congrats to Steph for graduating! live it up in the real world missy!!
first, stephen from last avenue called in. remember them? good sh*t. they recently announced the addition of two new members! alex coronado will be on guitar and michael louis vinci is on vocals. they'll be doing some fun things over the summer, so keep your eyes and ears open for that!
we closed out our run with nick and aaron from the fireship. they had their final show as a band last night and it was amazing. we partied cinco de mayo style with jarritos, taco dip, and juice. we taught nick a new hand motion and dropped some f-bombs.

please give LMC Radio a listen! they're super solid and have a great passion for music. they've even been known to play some songs from republic of lights, hemmingbirds, and the fireship! they're on every sunday out of UIC from 4 to 6. also check out Diamonds and Pearls Radio who are on from 2 to 4 every thursday.
steph and i are anything but done from this whole "music scene" thing. we teamed up with stories from a scene and will be bringing you videos, reviews, and up-to-date news on all things happening in local music! we'll also be working with jesse of the aesthetic/genius behind midcoast audio to bring you podcasts!! hopefully that will be going by the beginning of summer.
