1) Sat, May 17 at the Circle Bar with Metronome the City (NOLA)

This is our first show in a long time. Also a great opportunity to catch Metronome the City, whose “Electric Elements Exposed” is getting a good response.

2) Fri, June 6 at the Dragon’s Den with A Living Soundtrack (NOLA), Douglas Ferguson (Austin), Rat Bastard, spnlss

This show is scheduled on the first night of the Potluck Audio Conference (formerly TapeOpCon) in New Orleans, so we hope to see some other musicians and audio types there. For more information on shows see http://www.backporchrevolution.com/shows.php

We’ve had to play groupie to herself and Scabigail (#1337 Storyvillains) ever since. Oh, how the tables have turned. Here is an adorable picture of her from this year’s Mardi Gras. Don’t let that cute smile trick you, she will kick your ass back to the 1970′s on the track. Or anywhere else for that matter.And yes, she is good at blowing her own horn. But thanks for playing! http://blog.nola.com/flattrackfever/2008/03/rollergirl_of_the_week_crusty.html
