I’d watch ZBB do just about anything, but this was as good as anything I’ve seen them do…
My favorite tune from Thom Yorke and the boys?
For more traditional country folk, I sorta dig this Jerrod Niemann tune…
I wish I didn’t have to admit to digging this tune…

Also, I will be hosting a qualifier for the Olympic KanJam team Saturday (more on Twitter @OlympicKanJam). I expect the day to look much like this…
