Can I get an update for the Richmond, VA area…The Mule is kicking off the After Hours at Innsbrook summer series Wednesday night along with Tea Leaf Green for the third straight year!
Goddamn it, Will, you’re so demanding.
I know you’re a man who backs the Mule, can’t believe I missed that one…especially since I have them in Raleigh on Sunday.
Ha..sorry..don’t mean to be so demanding..just excited to see the mule 4 times over the next 7 days.
by the way..you need to come by and check out the new spot..right down the street from evoo.
