Of Montreal-11.10.2008
I really do not know where to start this review and really wish I had some physical evidence of exactly what I witnessed last night at the Howlin’ Wolf. But for now I guess words will just have to do. The evening began with the doors not so promptly opening at about 9:45 and a [...]

Yup more indie rock floks, but don’t worry my pants haven’t gotten super tight and the last three shows I have seen were The Faint, Panic and STS9, needless to say still the same old cat in the pearl button shirt. Now on to the meat, Dr. Dog, the Friday I am back for thanksgiving [...]
