Caveman, Computer Magic @ Schubas (3/5)

Cains & Abels @ Schubas (6/15)

I have my high regard for Bare Mutants‘ music and David Sampson’s divine mane, I think, to thank for setting in motion such steadfast support for Cains & Abels these past few months. By that I mean it was Bare … Continue reading

California Wives @ Schubas (11/12); Minor Characters @ Subterranean (11/10)

Viva Voce, The Parson Red Heads @ Schubas (9/19)

Project Film @ Schubas (3/1)

I always find it funny when I show up late to anything. I’m one of those people who likes to be early or on time for everything. Lately, it’s been a problem for a few reasons. The biggest of which … Continue reading
