Playing a few shows over the next few weeks.

Psyched to be playing next month at Union Hall with Marcellus Hall, who’s music is rivaled only by his post up moves in the paint.  No jokes, MH’s sky hook is the second smoothest in Minnesota hoops history behind George Mikan.

The Mikan Drill

OTHER NEWS:

AHands HDQ, which was starting to look like Bluto Blutarsky’s dorm room, recently underwent a head to toe cleaning in which we threw away a literally unbelievable quantity of non-working 9V batteries, chips (potato), non-working 1/4″ cables, and a variety of half empty bottles (wine, margarita mix, arizona iced tea).  RELIEVED>

Otherwise on a steady diet of the smoothest jams I can find, son.
