Cash terms only

Known for his deep, low and distinctive baritone voice, as well as his dark clothing, and demeanor, which earned him the nickname "The Man in Black”, Country singer-songwriter Johnny Cash (1932 - 2003) remains one of the most important musicians in the history of American music. Significantly, much of Cash's music echoed themes of sorrow, moral tribulation, and redemption.

Tonight, in paying tribute to Johnny, all songs will be sung in a lower octave. Or spoken.

Lab Test #46

Last night's test results are out.

Ginger: Long a popular hangover cure in Asia, Ginger does indeed do the trick, very much. To soothe one's stomach, take 500 mg of ginger capsules every few hours, or make a ginger tea. Alternatively, for a fast-acting dose if one is in a hurry, suck on raw ginger root. Chewing is optional. Nb. we will be handing out free samples at tonight's show.
