The Minor Thirds

Oh my!

We're back from our Ashland "debut" show. Everyone who was there took part in the set in some way or another, but we'd especially like to thank Jenn for her stunning ukelele solo during "Money", Judith for her thorough intimacy during "Hot Sex Movie", and the sexy beast himself, Steve "Puttski Luv" Putt, for all the erotic dancing.

Pictures were taken, and one is available. Also, check out the poster for the show.

Afterwards, improptu sets were performed by Celesteville (featuring what I believe was the debut of his stunning, startlingly beautiful song about, of all things, hack Choose-Your-Own-Adventure writer "R.A. Montgomery"), by Puttski Luv (featuring a song that was stunning and startingly beautiful in a completely different way called "Watchtower", which will hopefully be released on Sad Penguin soon), by the Awkward Pauses (featuring their yet-to-be-released hit song, "Living Room"), and by a yet-to-be-formed Mountain Goats tribute band.
