Apologies to James Poulos. Been meaning to post something by “the noble Savages.” This song is about the apocalypse.

That was a bracing way to start my morning Rufus!
I hope that in concert, you introduce every song in yr set the same way.
“This…is ALSO a song about the apocalypse.”Report
Usually by the time we get to this song I’m rolling around on the floor or up on the bar or something. I think our running joke is, “Here’s another soft rock love ballad for you…”Report
This is awesome, Rufus, but this does not belong on OTC. To the main page with it!!!!Report
Alright, I just didn’t want it to seem like I was stepping on Poulos’s toes. This is just our first demo, so nothing too polished.Report
That’s fantastic, Rufus. You guys should come to Ottawa. If you do, I promise to be there.Report
Thanks! I’m sure we will at some point. There’s vague talk of establishing a garage circuit between Detroit and Ottawa. I’m starting to book monthly shows in Hamilton- beginning tonight, actually. In fact, I’ve got to run to the local radio station now to blab about that.Report
That’s great. I might have a few connections in Ottawa, if needed.Report
You rock.Report
Nice.Report
Missed this last week. Holy cow, good stuff. Reminds me of attending ‘secret’ punk shows at an abandoned warehouse back in my 20s. Good memories.Report
