Start From Scratch Fall Tour 2011 Update 6

Last week, Andrew from Tatanka (keyboards & bass) broke his wrist at the skate park. He flew back to Denver for surgery, causing him to miss the San Luis Obispo & Santa Barbara shows. For those 2 shows, I filled in as their temporary keyboardist while our stage tech, Ernie, stepped in on bass duties. Andrew was eventually able to meet back with us in Hermosa Beach & Tatanka finished the rest of their run in California. This week, we hit Texas!
