and while Gold Star chili IS important… I got an email from a “cincinattian” today who informed me that there’s more than a riot goin’ on in Cincinnati… ;-). she mentioned WNKU, the NPR-news havin’ roots-rockin’ alternative to 97X, CincyMusic – a good place to check out cinci bands and possibly book a show if you are a travelling band, and lastly the Midpoint Music Festival — a big music festival with bands from all over the US and otherwise.

you know — from the tone of the email i received from this Sarah Hawkins, I somehow figured she was in public relations in some fashion. not to say i wasn’t excited to get the email, but i wondered. well, as it turns out — my hunch was correct. :) no one expects the google inquisition!
