The Arts and Sciences and Slushers

Here’s a photo to give a feel for what the trip to Greensboro was like. It was fantastic to get to spend a little time with the band, to see them play (which completely rocked) and to see Indigo Girls play as well. Their merchandise table was pretty much swamped the whole time between sets and after the girls played, which is good. It reduced our hang-out time but it’s worth it to get their CDs into the hands of new fans and also to get a little money into their touring cash box. Thanks for a great evening! I’m glad we went.
