Kaloo, Kalay!

March is done and that means a recap of the best songs on the BCOL!

Going over the setlists is always a great way to spend some time and even reawakens some forgotten tracks of weeks gone by. Yes, even last week I might forget what I played.

A mix of heroic pop songs, old favourites and new awesomeness which helps get rid of March and welcomes April and all the greatness which it has to have, because if it doesn’t then I’m done with April for good.

The Lotus show last Tuesday was incredible as usual and if they are coming to a town near you, go to the show. I’m going to try to meet up with them in NYC to catch another show which is at the historic Bowery Ballroom and promises to be another winning time.

Enough banter, on to the music…
