We have a two-pack of shows in November!
On the 7th we're playing in Frederick MD and on the 8th in Richmond VA. We haven't been back to either town in a long time, so this'll be great.

I'm happy to report that I'll be playing in a Killing Joke cover band for Halloween. They're one of my favorite bands and a huge influence, so it'll be a treat.
