Sorry that the last stream was removed. We didn't know that more that 31 seconds of music that doesn't belong to us is a copyright infringement, so FB pulled it down. It must have caught the final song while the team lined up for awards. We will try and prevent this in the future.
Playing for GOLD at 4 PM, see you then!!!
GO WILD!!!!! 🏒🥅
