Mark i am sorry i couldn't make it to the show. i had to work. I have been spreading around to all my friends how much soul you got. if i had a lot of friends youd have a huge audience.
Loving the new record guys. Hope ya'll can make it out to see Roses and us at the Miramar Thursday, October 9th. We should totally set up a show at some point.
we're so bummed that we missed your show last night. Pattern is movement was worn out after they played so we had to stick around the house. But Good luck @ the NY show Mark!! we shall see you at stonefly on oct 2
Hey--see you guys this FRIDAY at Turner Hall!! Tickets are available at the door and at Atomic Records. When buying at Atomic you get a free PBR Tall Boy voucher and you don't pay any ticket fees! Nice.
Holy cripes was that fun... Playing with 2 of our fave bands (you & J Tar) under a warm summer sky - splendid. You guys sounded fab. The Rascal Flatts fans had no idea what they missed. Much love - Testas
