West Coast Gigging: Rival Mob & The Mongoloids
Last night, I got the chance to chat up Greg Mongo. He was working the Man Overboard table. I was a wee bit confused why he was back there, but the Jersey thing all made sense after I thought about it for 14 seconds more. We talked about the upcoming weekend the Mongoloids and Rival […]
Ensign Bl’asts Through Europe 2001
Let this be the spark! That’s right. Ensign hit Europe fast and hard back in 2001. I think this was in support of their Nitro record The Price of Progression. I of course, wasn’t there to see it. I’m guessing discopaul wasn’t there either. But I can understand why he’d want to snap up this […]
