Thanks, daddeyacey. I am going to try to get off early and be there. I haven't been in Abyssinian in many many years, kinda nervous about that. I attended a rival church in my youth but I appreciate Rev Calvin's hosting this tribute... | ||

Wednesday night I was dragging home from a looooong day and night in D.C.....and WPFW played a live version of Red Clay with Hubbard and V.S.O.P. that snapped me out of serious funk and had me grinning the rest of the way home. |
