Public Warning

Well it's been a while since I've posted anything on here, but I can assure you that I am still alive. Someone filled in for my radio show last week, so I hope you liked it.

Anyway, just wanted to let you know that we're giving away lots of cool stuff at GT's this Thursday night. Straight outta England, we'll have copies of 'Public Warning', the brand new album from Lady Sovereign.

Sweet. See you at da club! djrg out.
