APPARENTLY, I’M NOT SHILLING WELL ENOUGH for my brother’s band. Reader Barry Pike emails: “Did I miss it or have you already told everyone about Copper winning the D’Addario ‘Greatest Band We’ve Never Heard’ contest?”

Well, I thought I had, but searching “D’Addario” says I didn’t. D’oh! So here’s the link. (My brother is the one in the Smith & Wesson t-shirt.) They played a special show at Blue Cat’s a couple of weeks back, and quite a few bigshots from Atlantic Records were there, so stay tuned.
