Another UNSCREW the Crocodile Employees benefit in January

It's good to know that there's a ton of folks who loved and miss the Crocodile and it's employees as much as we did.

Glory be to this town and the folks that have gathered the recent benefits to help the Crocodile employees who have found themselves suddenly and fairly inexplicably without jobs in this holiday season.

There's already a benefit planned at Chop Suey on 12/30, and Three Imaginary Girls is proud to help sponsor a second one, for Friday, January 4th at Chop Suey.

Das Llamas — World War

Das Llamas -- World War
Das Llamas’ music could never be described as joyful, but amidst all the growling, guttural savagery there is always a jocular levity that keeps you gleefully bopping to the beat while you barbarically bang your head.
