Imagine our surprise to find out a band in the UK named themselves after us and then wrote a song called "Valentown" and cut a CD! This is now our theme song. You can view more videos about the Valentown band here:

For your reading pleasure, following are excepts from the email conversation that took place upon discovery of the song between the website manager and the artist.

Hey there!

I am the webmaster for a local museum here in upstate central New York and was in the process of locating some YouTube videos about the museum when I bumped into your "Valentown" videos!

Thought you might be interested to know there really *is* a Valentown!

LOVE the music, by the way.

That is all.
