any chance you can dig into the wayback machine and find something by a punk band frm the eighties called Agitpop?

hey, what are we doing on Saturday? :) So that sounds like it'll take a week, Ranjit. Raincheck?

FYI: I am monitoring this program to verify that historical levels of awesomeness are met or exceeded. And say "hi" to Sloan for me, eh? :)

Hi Robyn- Monitoring? Oy, no pressure or anything... Hope it approaches expectations!

Robyn / March 27, 2010
So far, so brilliant. I can't wait to hear the new Blitzen Trapper :)
