Concert review: Little Big Town, April 19 at the AMP
April 22nd, 2013 at 9:45 am
I don’t suppose I expected Little Big Town to cover Lady Gaga (although a spin through YouTube proves they have many times before). I don’t suppose I expected them to cover John Mayer, either. But they did both on Friday … Continue reading
