yes, yes, yes...now awake - slow, coffee, breathing the not so colorado air (feels like cool cali weather), listening to men with dreadlocks sing songs that I can coast on - appreciative of that which night brings when it comes and the morning to restore

I'm playing at Hi-Dive on Wed Jan 21st with a San Diego band called The Donkeys. I am from San Diego so I have seen their badness in action. They also double as being Casiotone For The Painfully Alone's band.
The Build Up is playing too. They are a new Denver indie rock band to be pumped about.
Also, my new backing band rules! I want to make this a big deal because I haven't played a Denver show in ages. I'll have new shirts, buttons, and stickers. Come! I'll give you a free button and sticker! (21+, $6)
