I don't know about the chardonnay, but if Yosemite Road Cabernet, 7-Eleven's house brand , were a song, it'd be "Red, Red Wine." Not Neil Diamond's original.

As has long been rumored, Phish will return to the American Airlines Arena in Miami for their traditional four-show New Year’s run. In typical prankster fashion the band put an ad for a four-show David Bowie/UB40 co-bill at the arena in Miami on those dates in their Playbill, which also details the album they will be covering tonight in Indio @ Festival 8.
