I would pay you a dollar to play dollar.

Rocket From The Crypt played a 2 night stand at Alex’s Bar on January 30 and 31, 2015. They were great, playing different sets each night, and spanning their massive catalog. I’m sure everyone there left satisfied, hot, sweaty and tired … I also assume everyone there left bummed that they didn’t get the hear…

The Hold Steady, The Cheap Girls and I got a show …
