In honor of the Stanley Cup champion Detroit Red Wings (can you tell I went to the parade yesterday morning?), we tried to find all the songs about "wings" that we could (couldn't find any about hockey).  Also gave away tickets to see Ruthie and the Wranglers, as well as some music from that fine band.  What a great time!
