Feeling so happy that I went over 1,800 listens for MUSIC ON THE COUCH. So, for the first two months of 2011, over 3,500 people have listened to the show!

Travis lays out some guidelines for this meme and they go like this:
1. Grab the banner, make your post title Five on Friday, and be sure to link back here.
2. Go to Playlist.com to make your play list of five songs. Choose a particular theme to share with us. You can simply post the play list, or you can add a little summary about what you are sharing.
3. I don't know how to make a specific linky, so be sure to leave me a comment to let me know that you participated.
4. No tags, but feel free to invite your friends to play along if they need a post topic on a Friday.

Beale Street is a fun place to be. The husband and I had a trip planned to Memphis this weekend but it fell through. I was looking forward to ribs at the Rendezvous!
The Tommy Castro tune stands out for me in a really good Set. And that looks like a great line up for the Festival. Enjoy!
Enjoy enjoy enjoy!
Thanks for giving the far-away people a little taste of the Beale Street Music Festival. Really enjoyed Salt of the Earth.
