It's the punk rock way.<br /><br /><span style="font-style:italic;">August 12</span> - with supporting players C. Ray Harvey, Lee Miles, and Kyle Morris.

Playing alongside acts New Pale Swimmers and The Rewinders, Scotty Briggs will play the album "Me & Christopher" straight through (and maybe some other tunes as well.) Mr. Briggs himself will play bass guitar, and a pair of fellows named Jon will play electric guitar and drums behind him. If you're old enough to spend a few dollars and have your mind blown by this first performance, then by all means get the hell out there on Friday.<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://brassrailfw.com/"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 300px; height: 224px;" src="http://brassrailfw.com/images/sign_reader.jpg" border="0" alt="" /></a>minorrockstarhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10641150532193058348noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1370056966012166681.post-70645115676935476732009-04-20T18:00:00.002-04:002009-04-21T15:42:02.305-04:00"...And Girls" performed liveScotty Briggs made an appearance at a local art opening last week and played some songs.
