So I ended up looking silly getting the mic stand ... Read More

I participated, with a few friends of mine, in a cover show at a local joint here in Valdosta, GA called Buffington's. The idea of the show, Under the Covers, was to have bands play all covers that night. I toyed around with the ... Read More
