Soo… I can think of a couple of different interpretations of this… fortunately there were some other things to check out in Savannah : the Savannah National Wildlife Refuge.

XENOMORPH!!! On August 29th we played the Oops House Concert in Rockville, MD. We were not at ALL prepared for how cool the setting was going to be. The Oopsians definitely have substantial aesthetic overlap with the ilyAIMYites… the Oops House Concert fell on a date when our friend Sean Thomas Gerard was coming through…
