October 26, 2013

We are still working on all of Aftershock coverage from last month!! Can you believe it? Well there were soooo many bands and a lot to cover. One of those bands was Halestorm, who is a long time favorite of ours. We have seen them probably about a half dozen times and they never disappoint!
