Re: vaudeville mews the new house of bricks?

75-78 were good years. $750-$2,000.

Get ahold of jeff Haigwood @ vintagecycledsm.blogspot.com . He sells bike and also services them. Very fair priced.

I booked it. 21+ because that's what the venue does and I think all the fans will be 21+ either way. I'm sure if you wanted to bring your kid we could arrange something. I like the room. Good vibe to it. Any recommendations on locals? List em below...

Re: Someone upload the Stand United album

I'd love to chime in, although I really have nothing to do with this show. I don't do local only shows, mainly because if you are in a local band you should be booking your own shows.

Re: Propagandhi in Des Moines

I kinda felt like the price was a little high myself so we are doing a couple things. Advance tickets will be available now for $15 instead of $16 at midwestix.com. Also, I am going to find a place to have advance tickets with no additional service fees (maybe bricks or ZZZ). If anyone has any ideas...
