CW8 interview on Dadlabs.com!

yogi — Wed, 16 Apr 2008 07:00:00 GMT

So yeah, we did this amazing interview that got edited down to about 10 seconds during SXSW. We wish you could see it all, BUT you can at least see us play "Balboa" live in the studio. Since it is acoustic, and it was 10 am, I was drinking a beer with a stupid look on my face.

Enjoy!
