Well, within these past couple of weeks we marked our 9th year of doing Free Form Freakout, and we celebrated in our usual style – by forgetting it altogether. Perhaps it’s for the best to just focus on what’s happening in any given week and just keep moving forward. That’s probably how we’ve managed to keep doing this after all of these years anyways. Over the past few weeks, though, we did manage to play some timely anti-Valentine’s Day songs, Carl was introduced to the Sleaford Mods, we yapped up some local rock events, and we had a Lou Reed vs. The Beatles battle match.
