about

This music is free and may be downloaded, shared, copied, scattered, smothered, and covered for personal use only. In lieu of paying for this music for your own listening pleasure, please consider a small donation to JDRF. They are doing great work to eradicate Type-1 Diabetes, which affects my son, and you can probably claim it on your taxes and feel good about yourself in the process! midtennessee.jdrf.org

PS - if you're a Dell Inc employee, log into the Powering The Possible website to donate - they will match dollar for dollar!
