CONSTRUCTION TIME AGAIN

Back to work on the new LP with the help of Amanda and Emmett.
Supporting cast:
Oberheim Xpander and Tron notebook.
Dave Smith Voyager.
Yamaha 246 XY keyboard. 
When asked for production references, I said I'd like it to sound like Sly and Robbie backing Emmanuel Lewis.

So expressive...
Room with a view.
Here's a preview:
Emmett's hard work started to take it's toll. Time for a break!

SFSGS SUBMISSION

This photo was submitted by our good friend from Belfast, Neil Brogan. It is an abstract interpretation of the society's initials. Neil plays in a band called Girls Names alongside our other mate Cathel. If you are interested in submitting sea glass finds, email ramtownusa@gmail.com.

SFSGS: THE SHORES OF THE EMERALD COAST

PASS! THE! ROCK!

Question: How do you pass the time between arriving to a show and the time doors open?
Answer: PASS! THE! ROCK!
First, find a rock. The flatter the better.
Next, place the rock on top of your foot and pass it to the person next to you without using yours hands or letting it fall on the ground.
Like so.
SUCCESS!

After the show we went to a bar that had the original sign from Thin Lizzy's live show...
...and watched this man eat his drinking glass! 

BELFAST

Patrick Kelleher kicks off the last show ever at The Menagerie.
LATE NIGHT
On the way home I noticed this John Maus graffiti. Pretty strange...
