[ April 17, 2010; 8:30 pm; ] Part ritual, ceremony, part fashion show. Come see my other band. A movement, a storm, a revelation, a new beginning. The elements are elemental. The breath is witnessed. Come celebrate water with us.
Love,

WFMU live radio broadcast: “Ridin’ Dirty with Trent and Marty McSorley”
We rode, for about a mile. We gambled with the 30%-50% chance of rain and lost.
