5 months gone

The new Willowz album came out this past Tuesday so I thought I'd finally post these photos I took of them at their November 2006 performance at Springwater. You can check out some of their music here: www.myspace.com/thewillowz. Hoping to check out Times New Viking and Clockcleaner this evening. If so, I'll have my camera in tow and may even write a bit about the show.
