Thanks for tuning in! I had a great time playing some Amphetamine Reptile Records artists in honor of their 25th anniversary. I had a great time at the bash staying in the shade, drinking more Crispin Cider than a man should, and watching Boss Hog tear it up. The night culminated with a shirtless dude onstage mooning the crowd during the encore and then the band leaving. I like akward stage departures, lets you know it's not staged.

August has been a hot month! Too hot to blog and too hot to brew. September will be bringing cooler temperatures, back to school, and pants. It also brings 3 of my favorite bands to town: Pavement, The Flaming Lips and the Drive-By Truckers. We'll feature a set of this trio each week.
