Manual Release: Exponential gets listed; Mojoe, Egshan schedule shows

We're gonna pretend it's the new year already, so I can introduce you to a new feature I'm trying out in which I just shut the hell up and give the local musicians a chance to promote themselves without all my "critiquing" and "being a total douchebag" getting in the way.

If you want your well-considered self-aggrandizing statements and status updates of reasonable length considered for posting right here, just send them to me. If you've recently sent me one I should've included here, please feel free to send that shit again. Hopefully we can all stay better-informed that way.

And without further delay, some local press releases.

(Note: These are excerpts, edited for grammar punctuation and clarity.)
