Early to Bed, Early to Rise... Makes A Man Totally Not Rock

Ouija Radio. Are they an FM band, or an AM band?.

Hmm. We're not sure, and neither is Texas. The biggest local buzz band since, well, the Alarmists, is already sidelined on their first national tour. After just two days on the road, singer Christy Hunt has been diagnosed down in the Lone Star State with laryngitis. Which is a bit like a marathon runner being diagnosed with gout at mile marker number 1... not exactly a good sign.

On the bright side, Christy has plenty of time at the moment to post to the band's blog. While she may be somewhat baffled at her Cursed Bad Luck, we think maybe starting the Turf Club after-party at 4 a.m. with a "bottle of bubbly" maybe was not the best way to kick off a national tour in full voice. Kids these days!
