With the capitol being marched on and around and through by over 75,000 people today, (correction, over 100,000 people) I shared in another day of believing that my voice matters. Before marching, I had the privileged to play some art over the free airwaves (well, sorta). I want to thank Tony Brown for blessing the show with his call in with discussions and stories or things real and true. Tony will be live at the Brink Lounge March 1. I also want to thank Doug Jenkins from the Portland Cello Project for being another phone in guest today as we talked about what to expect when they are in town on March 4th at the High Noon Saloon, how beer and cello go well together and the hope to march together on the square when they arrive.
