Free to the public!!!????!?!?!??!
Vietnam, Bound Stems and Big Sleep may be really good, but free to the public means the $150 i paid for my badge is worthless! (at least for that show) I want shows closed to the public and only open to badges! :-)
Score = 0
Serious Business Records Showcase at the Knitting Factory old office on Nov 1! The Unsacred Hearts, Man In Gray, The Octagon, Kickstart, The Two Man Gentleman Band and DraculaZombieUSA!!!!
Score = 0
Anyone know any info about The Cardigans playing? I heard they are playing an acoustic set and it's the only show date in the US. If it's true, i'll die one happy person.
