In case you haven’t heard, Tapes ‘n Tapes are embarking upon a mini Twin Cities tour this weekend, giving you a reason to enjoy one, two, or three rock-filled nights out this weekend.  But in addition to this, the band is also tipping a hat to other local Twin Cities artists via a limited time, downloadable mixtape available through their website.  Here’s the official word from the Tapes ‘n Tapes myspace blog:

soooo, as you may (or may not) know, we are having a little “tour” of the twin cities this coming up weekend.  the details about the shows are below, but that’s not what this is about.  to celebrate all things minneapolis/st paul, we’ve made a mixtape!  it’s got a song from each of our “tourmates” and some of our favorite bands, including dosh, gay beast, fog, chooglin’, the plastic constellations, birthday suits and many, many more.  you can download the whole thing FOR FREE at our website, tapesntapes.com.

thanks so much to all the bands who were kind enough to let us share their songs with you!  this will only be up for a week….so get it while you can and tell your friends!!!!

hopefully we’ll see y’all soon!
love always,
tapes
