Notes
The show (a benefit for an organization called Kensington Stray Cat Rescue) was successful overall, but when a band shows up for a gig at 720pm and sits around -- tuned up and ready to play, it should be noted -- for four hours while certain people fuck about and waste time, the members of said band deserve to be a little pissed when they are told, at the the last minute, to shorten their set, only to find out after the show that they were cut short so that the aforementioned fucker-arounders could leave their job early. Fortunately, we play well when we're angry.

Notes
The TL technical catastrophe tradition continues. The first three songs were supposed to be an "acoustic set," but for various crappy reasons Todd was the only person who actually played acoustic. There were lotsa friendlies in the crowd, though, so we just acted all drunk and stuff and nobody seemed to notice or care that we were teetering on the brink of collapse.
