Re: Old School Horseshoe Spatulas

ha. ok. glad some peeps are digging it. Warning: 300 Squiggly is not for the faint of heart or those who believe in the sanctity of music. I'd avoid steering clear and sticking to the other stuff. Also, Boberg Twins was a little solo project of our lead singer with help from Pat Boberg. I highly rec...

Old School Horseshoe Spatulas

Surprisingly enough, people have been sending us messages looking to get a hold of old (mostly TERRIBLE) spatulas material. If anyone's interested, pretty much all horseshoe spatulas-related music recorded pre-2005 can be found here:

One more thing. It's a natural accent. Borat has ruined an entire culture. . Like Pratt said earlier, that's the people's problem.
