The saying says that April Showers bring May Flowers.  If that's the case, I hope you're all ready for a bunch of flowers this coming month. We saw about 22 or 23 shows this last week...This week we're going to try to take it a little easier, but with so many good bands out there it's tough not to want to see them all!!!
