Awesome show last night with Shitbox Jimmy and Fred and Toody Cole of Dead Moon. Thanks to all who came out.

Since fall is in full force, I thought I’d share an old tune, “Orange Floats,” which is inspired by spiraling leaves and spooky clouds.  Its a free download. Where it says Buy Now, you just write a 0 in the box (or you can write $1000000 :D)
