My Rock and Roll Journey:  Tony LaSelva – Ugly Melon – Chapter 4

Written by TonyLaSelva (Ugly Melon) I ended chapter 3 of My Rock and Roll Journey talking about Ugly Melon’s upcoming record release party at The Opera House in Toronto in May.  After some deliberation, I’ve decided to save that topic for Chapter 5 (after the concert).
