Yup, I am pleased to announce it is right around the corner. I know people are getting cranky (or tired of Vol. 3) waiting on it, I am ALMOST THERE. Promise. Keep posted this week as it should be here soon. For all of you iTunes people, I will publish a playlist there so you can fetch it immediately. It will be callled "Waltimate Mix Vol. 4" - I think it is best to just C & P this in the search box. It is worth the wait. Peace. Walt.

Day 3 of Camp:
I am EJ-ing at Air Conditioned. Cut a deal with the owner to restructure happy hours to facilitate cheaper drinking for longer. Reeeal niiiice. He is extending happy hour from -until 7 to -until 8. He has also added $2 off EVERY draft (not just domestics) and 50% off all cocktails. Requests welcome. I have moved up to playing every Wednesday in this slot and am looking to help promote other days as well. If you have ideas for a better happy hour, please get at me, cheers. C-ya there.
