Howdy hUmaNz!!!

Special hello to all the new folks we met at the Stick Men show! What a night, right?

Speaking of that night, there is a new live recording of Grape Juice Plus' set now available on Bandcamp called "from the crows nest" --- referring to the area above the stage at Reggies where it was captured and where Tony Churchill was tossing those awesome projections from.

Anyhoo....

Get it! It's a good listen if I say so myself...
