Good photo, while boasting and blaring at the Victory Park area,will Mark Cuban be there at the Room Of Blues, or will it become another cop night, now dont get me wrong, just that it does scare the crowd off....althought which ones....need to be tamed and which ones can drive around Rome in style for 2009...A/T,..Apathy or lights and action for the masses on New Years Eve.
