I've kept that in my subconscious all these years and specifically tried really hard to not do that on Pulling Teeth tours.

I think the last time they played before this was '95 or so and they weren't really a known entity then.<br /><br />Anyway Converge ruled, Today is the Day was pretty good, I was outside for Brother's Keeper, and Boy Whines on Microphone bored the shit out of me.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12094063629245480081noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2351746708752892673.post-70050783000854855432010-04-05T11:24:36.816-04:002010-04-05T11:24:36.816-04:00I think my GF at the time wanted me to drive to th...I think my GF at the time wanted me to drive to this, but I was a total sissy about driving around the DC Beltway, so we just stayed home, ate popcorn and made out.<br /><br />The end.Ape Mummyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07477555333510792158noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2351746708752892673.post-10533601539542184192010-04-01T15:03:34.517-04:002010-04-01T15:03:34.517-04:00That's the one.That's the one.Mike Rileyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17395044590828021064noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2351746708752892673.post-80732773986847065732010-04-01T14:53:39.751-04:002010-04-01T14:53:39.751-04:00chris brady?chris brady?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2351746708752892673.post-70972734263665348052010-04-01T11:41:44.984-04:002010-04-01T11:41:44.984-04:00Nice pic.
