theSTART is playing a show in celebration of our B-sides!
Dec 12 2009 TROUBADOUR Los Angeles, CA
12/12 seems like a very auspicious date we hope that proves true...
We have been working hard to design a set you have never seen/heard before or will again. this is going to be a one time only event... and our last show for the year.
We will be selling one of a kind B-side collection CDs with hand drawn art by the band.

We feel really blessed that we were allowed to choose our bill from top to bottom and have picked some bands we love and hope you do too...
We have invited our friends and favorites Mellowdrone to co headline with us, in direct support of them is Shiloe and kicking it all off is CAT PARTY. It should be an amazing night from the start to theSTART!
