In this episode we’re talking about moving and the headaches associated with it, like dealing with phone companies and dumpster divers. Rush kicked off their tour Tuesday night, and we discuss the merits of Twitter and online communities for getting the play-by-play from the concerts as they’re happening. And we’ve got a million dollar solution for bands – sell your own bootlegs at the venues! Drew is back from the EVO conference, and he’s got the full report – and a couple of new iPads for his effort.
