hey there, just a head’s up… i will be appearing with a full band playing my song “dutch blitz” on the NBC 10! Show which airs in the philadelphia area market. make sure to tune in live or set your DVR’s for thursday, may 28th @ 11am on NBC 10.
i will be twittering throughout the whole morning leading up to the taping of the show, so check out http://twitter.com/joelrakes to see behind the scenes photos and so forth.
also, on the next day (may 29th) i’m going to playing at burlap & bean in newtown square @ 8pm which is one of my favorite venues. this will be my last show in the philly area until late july. see more info on the shows page.
