Hey guys, we finally have new songs up. Even though it's only two, at least they aren't a year old. I love you guys, you have no idea how much seeing the words "Last show" scared me.
Underwater Getdown decided to throw us a benefit out of the goodness of their hearts, and we love them for that (actually, we love them anyway, but that is beside the point). Support community media, support local music, and have a kickin' good time all at once for a measly 5 bucks!
Today Wayne returns from tour w the amazing guys from Kinch. We will be partying the night away at the Yucca Tap Room starting at 10pm. Join Tugboat, Milo the Mayor, Yellow Minute, Kirkwood, and last, but not least, Kinch.
Fun times will be had!
