New Friends, and Why I Should Stop Giving My Number Out At Bars

Music shows are a unifying thing. People come together to sing, dance, sway, and listen to the beats… which is why I make so many friends at shows that The Spazmatics play – we’re just all so damn happy to be singing along to Summer of ’69. If I haven’t pressured you to see them [...]
