:: Fecal Friday!! ::

howell_down2.jpgAndrew is getting investigated by a government agency and Jay Howell got a seat thrown at him while riding down the Mission and ended up going over the bars to a broken collar bone. 2 DJs down for our closing show Friday night. Don't worry because we still got Jesse (aka DJ Ricky Suede) and possibly others... It really doesn't much matter anyway because the great Ral Partha Vogelbacher is playing. So we'll be seeing you on Monday for the closing of our 7.5 Year Anniversary Show @111 Minna. Good times. 8-2am.

Ral Partha Vogelbacher (download a song) will be playing our closing show this Friday @111 Minna for our 7.5 year anniversary show. If you like Thee More Shallows then you'll like Ral Partha as Dee Kesler of T.M.S. wrote the music for R.P.'s last album Shrill Falcons... We'll most likely have another band play as well as we work out the details... This is our last chance at seeing our best show to date. Andrew from Needles and Pens will be there once again to spin some records. Whoa, that was the last time I've danced and fallen on my face. Good times and a nasty hangover.
