By cclr | Published August 31, 2009

We stopped in Princeton on our way to Philly a few weeks back to play a set for Jon Solomon at WPRB.   Our drummer likes to think of Jon as the John Peel of New Jersey, and I think he’s on to something with that.  Jon is great, we had fun, and our set is […]

By cclr | Published November 26, 2008

Then Richie said, “Hey man let’s dress up like cops. Think of what we could do!”

By cclr | Published November 19, 2008
