Hey The Color Awesome. I work at SIRIUS XM Radio and thought you might be interested in a great video clip we have of the Thermals from their recent visit here. The YouTube link is below if you’d be interested in embedding it for Thermals fans.
Thanks,

Hey Phil. We met when you dj’d at the E. You played my request for the Aeroplane remix of ‘Paris’, which made me smile. Hope you’re well.
Hi! I stumbled upon this site when looking for the videos played on Subterranean. Looks like you haven’t kept up with making playlists of videos the show plays. I thought it was a great idea. I hate that I can’t remember the name of the band I saw on there the other day.
Hey There!
I really dig your blog, it seems like we have very similar views and taste. I just started a blog, and would like to link to yours from my page. Would that be cool?
Cheers!
Andrew
