i feel endings coming on. i feel like things are coming to a close. soon. very soon.
next week will be the last of beauty & the beat. i don't know if it will resurface again in september. that remains to be seen...

i haven't made much use of my soapbox the past year, except to play some amazing music, and occasionally speak out on some issues that have come up that have been important to me. i hope i've done my part in promoting great independent music. and i don't know what lies ahead for me in regards to broadcasting. i feel like a new direction is coming on. but that also remains to be seen.

for now, i'll just enjoy the music.
& i hope you do too.
