Tell us about the dreads. How long have you had them? What made you decide to get them? Ever since I was a te...
Vel Meow Fool! Recently, I had the good fortune of catching Cleveland’s Vel at Annabell’s. After the thirty minutes of awesomeness that was his set, I had the even greater fortune to be given a copy of his CD, Meow, Fool!, by the man himself. Err, I mean cat…he only takes human form for recording and live performances. And who knew cats could make music this spectacular?
