Last Orbit Gig March 28!

   Posted by: Joel

All good things must end, and our regular Monday night at the Orbit Room is sadly coming to a close.  The last scheduled performance is Monday, March 28.  First set starts at 9:30PM, so come a little earlier to get settled in.  We have had an awesome couple years playing for you at the Orbit every Monday, and I can’t say we wont miss it.  Our last show should be a total party, so come on out!
