What a bad merger that will be. I would have expected the British courts to be against that Ticket Master and Live Nation behemoth. Now they just need clear channel to complete that mess.

I do too. Thanks for that link. The roots make the song sound like a spector production.

Julian has a great voice! He is the hippest singer in New York. He should ditch the solo thing and join a band.

Julian and The Roots are releasing a Christmas album next week! I cant wait!

I saw Julian at Cake Shop recently. He ordered vegan cupcakes and didn't tip the server. What a doosh!

The whole Snow LP is pretty solid. And these guys easily sold out 3 NYC shows already.

^^^Maybe these are scalpers upset about the T5 addition?
