[kj] NYC gig - Mission Accomplished

[Mike]

Alright folks I/m the newbie here so heres my deal,
Please dont tell anyone but I have yet to see KJ live and in person.
UNTIL NOW
I have secured a badge for the webster hall show courtesy of CMJ
and now i/m anxiously awaiting the 22 of October, not since my wifes 8th
month
of preganancy have I been so amped for any occasion. I look foward to the
show
and hopefully meeting some of you special people.

                                                        Mike
