last show of summer vacation =(

I'm exhausted from being on a leadership retreat for the last two days. Good times were had (kinda) but the last two days have seriously lacked some good music. So luckily my show happened right after the retreat ended. Awesome? Well, I think so. 

Next week I'm playing lots of songs about summer or with summer in the title to celebrate the end of summer and, uh... [insert word here that would be the opposite of celebrate] the beginning of the school year. Woo!

(Did you know that woo stands for "winning others over"? Never knew that til today on the retreat. I think that is the one useful thing I learned. Cool.)
