Songs In Seven with Matt Burt

Hi folks! Well...it's been six months. 28 episodes. 10,000+ downloads from 60+ countries. And now we have arrived at the final episode of "Songs In Seven with Matt Burt". On today's show: I talk about a Vegas trip that got REALLY crazy, weigh in on one of the greatest email bloopers of all-time, and rewind back to an oldie but a goodie from the Si7 podcast series before wrapping up with a very special segment. Most importantly, I want to say THANK YOU for listening! I'm eternally grateful for all your support and encouragement during this awesome journey. It's been such a pleasure making music and jokes for you for the last 28 weeks. I hope you heard some music that made you tap your toes and some puns that made you chuckle. Thanks to Alex Nirta for the killer photos. Thanks to everyone who sent in titles and genre suggestions. Thanks to everyone who helped support me in other ways - you know who you are! Thanks to everyone for listening and (hopefully) enjoying. I'll be back with another creative venture in the not-too-distant future and I look forward to sharing it with you.
