Man, I wish my dad were alive, he used to play the accordian and this would have blown his mind. I was the zither player and Jimmie was the piano player...what a trio. (I did not say I was good)!

Michael Addington

Michael Addington I'm really digging the HD sound. It sounds so much more alive. I used
to live by MHCC as a kid and remember sneaking peeks into the KMHD
studio window. Now were both on the westside. :)
