Kimya Dawson came to our small town,
and I think just about anyone with a heart
was completely touched.
There were many new and friendly faces,
and dozens upon dozens of cupcakes.
First was Pat Regan, from l.a, (who I'm going to start a rock n roll band with)
Flawless sincere innocent insightful young man

Next was Tall Tales and the silver lining, from Ventura
Good vibing epic country folk for the soul

Lastly, was Kimya!
She is, in all honesty, one of the most stunning and inspiring human beings I've ever met. Her songs and stories brought tears, laughter, insight, and an overall sense of substance and meaning to every single person there. My mom still bursts into tears just talking about it. It truly was an experience.
Going out to dinner with her and her beautiful family and all my friends after, was a real real great time, never to be forgotten.
Also..Howard recorded the whole show, so I'll put those up eventually)

Thank you to all those who attended, it wouldn't have been what it was if one single person was missing.
Now, Go see Juno (seriously)
