^^^ boys 2 men - sweet! you have the memories forever...
What's even better is that they played with K-ci & Jojo, Next, Mya, and Uncle Sam.
I was only open to admitting about Boys II Men at first. Well...you have to start your concert experiences somewhere....
and Explosions in the Sky has to be one of the most amazing and mentally stimulating bands I have ever come across it's just a plus that they are from ATX. Hopefully they will come off of their hiatus soon, June maybe.
