what people are saying…
“I loved you guys before… but then you go slam a beer, take the stage, and blow the roof off the place playing punk rock hiding behind country music.”
“We play fast songs, slow songs, sad songs, and by the time we’re done… hopefully you say they ain’t bad songs.”
“rankin’s 13… Ain’t That Bad.”
