Well, inbetween the demise of ZeRO and whatever wonderfulness is on the way from the makers of MTC, I plan to post some mixes here for a while. I am hoping that some of my old mixtape buddies will be dropping by this way soon, and will be approaching some of them soon to do some collaborative mixes. More of that when it happens.

Meanwhile, this first mix is my antidote to the seriousness of the last week. Hospital shennigans are behind me for a bit, Karmen is off most the week, and a sense of calm and fun has washed over Grant Acres. So, what is the deep and penetrating theme behind this first offering. Well, it is simple. rock and blues and such played for fun, for people to dance and have fun too, because it is my contention that dumb rock and roll ain't so dumb after all. Can't stop for any more chat, karmen really is trying to sell my Monkey...
