this Saturday they play a FREE show with Dublab DJs Frosty and Ale at the Getty for the more or less monthly Saturdays Off the 405 series (parking is free now, too!). and just in case you happened to miss all that (put down the bongs you lazy bastards), on Sunday they make a stop for another show at the Detroit Bar in Costa Mesa. i hate overachievers.
