Jeez, last show was insane. Ya'll packed the joint. And if you missed it, you missed Augie from the HARD LESSONS climbing in the rafters while covering Neil Young. Video here

Let's do it again-- Friday with a big show headlined by recent Spin.com Band of the Day BEAT THE DEVIL, and then with a little antifolk party the following night. Spread the dang word; the weather's finally warming up...and so is Long Island City nightlife (*I should work in advertising!*)
