Saying it now, that first gig back is going to be wild!

You doing gigs along the way? 🤷🏻‍♀️

Hey Theo & Shannon, been a long time! I found my way here cause some friends posted the wish to support each other as a way of resisting consumerism and I was looking for a link to seizetheday.org/music/bigger-better-brighter-2/ I could send them. Australia! Thats where I live! Please come and do a gig at the Narara Ecovillage when you're on the East Coast.
