�guitar for an unusually sweet Dock Boggs tune, the wistful old ballad "Papa Build Me a
Boat." Rose Griffith completes the group, lending lovely harmonies to Carter Family
tunes and bringing a powerful holler to Hazel Dickens' hard-luck number, "Busted."
A mainstay of the Show Case has been BYK, a power trio consisting of Joslyn Boyer
(upright bass), Zephyr Yellman (fiddle), and Tim Keough (fiddle and guitar). They
forged their sound from summer morning jams (I'll never forget hearing a phone recording
of their twin-fiddle harmonizing on the old PT Bell tune "Mace Bell's Civil War March."
The audience thrills every time Joslyn draws her bass bow from a h on the instrument and
bellows a melody. The three of them have curated a fantastic set, and I'm still blown away
at how deftly
Zephyr twists
the pegs of
his fiddle in
and out of
rich open
tunings to
lend each
piece a
unique
sound. The
highlight this
set was the
twisty,
BYK serenade at Batch (L to R, Joslyn Boyer, Zephyr Yellman, Tim Keough)
winding
"Dusty Miller" from Missouri's Gene Goforth, a tune Tim heard a few years back at
CROMA from Steam Machine's AJ Srubas. Zephyr wound up winning a ribbon at Clifftop
with the tune, and it wowed again at Batch. By this time of the night the place was packed,
and I squeezed through the line at the counter for my instruments for the last set. Near the
front door, Los Fandangeros played an impromptu happy birthday for a beaming girl, with
the crowded room stomping their feet behind the semi-circle of musicians. As the
Slaughter Creek Drought Busters, Adam and I atttempted to end with a nightcap,
soothing the room with a meditative acoustic drone, bathed in violet light he had rented for
the show. Using unique open tunings for fiddle and banjo, we conjured a long take on a
West Virginia tune learned from Dwight Diller, "Piney Woods." The tune unwound over a
sonic texture of bowed banjo (on loop from a guitar pedal), and a shruti box operated in
turns by Lindsey Zischkale and Heather Brodkin.
Another great night at Batch - huge thanks to Darrel Mayers with AFTM, and
Adam and Henry Brodkin for doing the hectic job of running sound, and
Gabriel Lit for giving us the space to share our music!

REEL TIMES
SUMMER 2025
Howdy all you pickers and bowers, singers and shouters, clawhammerers, dulcimer
hammerers, you noisemakers of all kinds! Reel Times is under new management, with
Adam Brodkin and myself filling the big shoes Gary Mortensen left. So we're gonna
bring you the Old-Time word, wherever banjos, ballads, yeah even bodhrans, sound off.
From Austin, Texas, around the world, and back again. We'll print big events, new tunes,
voices from the community: all about homemade acoustic roots music and the folks who
make it.
This issue we'll kick things off with a few great albums we've been spinning all summer,
check in with our festival correspondents, get a peek at the twenty-sixth year of a great
shindig out in Hill Country, hear from one of our regular pickers at the Tuesday night
jam, lose oureslves to the drone, and finish with a report on the latest String Band
Showcase at Batch out off of Airport.
And don't forget that This October is our big Austin String Band Festival, so
SAVE THE DATE and come on out to Camp Ben McCulloch in Driftwood,
October 17 - 19. Bring your jam tunes and get ready for a great lineup: we've got
Guy Forsyth's 78 Special, Brandi WallerPace, the Here & Now Band, Spencer &
Rains, and the Lost Keys, Missy Beth &
the Morning Afters, Mariachi Las Altenas,
Luke Moody, Everett Wren, BYK, Corey
McCauley, Steel Grassy, and the Austin
City Quicksteppers!
There'll also be a
SILENT AUCTION!!
Please donate items (musical
instruments, books, artwork, etc.)!
Contact Lee Thomas
(817-480-5561) for pick-up
or bring items to the festival kitchen on
Saturday morning, Oct 18.
SEE Y'ALL THERE!

�FRESH SHELLAC
Rhiannon Gidden's staccato old-time banjo
pierces the warm summer drone of 17-year
cicadas, alongside the driving bow of her old
Carolina Chocolate Drops bandmate Justin
Robinson. They bring us the impromptu
energy of a back porch jam with eighteen
tunes begging to be learned and shared. From
killer takes on chestnuts (“Ebenezer”) to
intriguingly titled obscurities (“Duck’s
Eyeball”), this record is packed with energy
and will have your fingers itching to pick.
Not a ton of blockbuster films reference Charley
Patton, Geechie Wiley, and Rocky Road to
Dublin, so hopefully old-time fans caught Sinners
in theaters, a story of Black resistance and joy in
the Jim Crow-era South that director Ryan
Coogler spins into a universal statement about a
deeply human relationship to music, pleasure, and
spiritual danger. The album isn’t your usual oldtime fare but is well worth a listen for actor Miles
Caton’s gorgeous rendering of delta blues (he
impressively learned slide guitar for the role), and
an exclusive cut from Rhiannon and Justin.

West Virginia and Pennsylvania natives The
Wild Shoats released their first proper album,
full of both original fiddle tunes that would fit
nicely in a jam, and achingly emotional
songwriting. Just tuck into the opening strains
of “Clara” and be taken away as the band
applies the pulse of traditional fiddle to
sorrowful bury-me-not lyrics inspired by
Lonesome Dove. When singer and fiddler
Mary Linschield brings the last refrain up an
octave, it has me breaking out in goosebumps.
Gorgeous version of "Moonshiner" (and great
imagery about his breath) with buzzy baritone
harmonies from bandmate Augustus Tristch.
This was a huge help as I took to the board to double-chug some flatfoot steps during the
Dog Day String Band's set, to a certain possum-themed tune that just happened to be
mentioned in our Duck River Dispatch section. The Dogs include myself (fiddle and
mandolin) and Adam (upright bass and banjo), with Britt Irick fiddling and whacking
out rhythms on a banjo uke (the shrink-dried version of the banjo). He also picked up

CRAFT BEER AND KOLACHES
STRING
BAND
SHOW
CASE
MAY 10, 2025
This past May marked the third String Band Show Case at Batch, an AFTM-hosted event
in which Austin old-time players take to the indoor stage in various string band incarnations
for an evening of raucous acoustic tunes. Frosty pints of beer flow and kolaches sweet and
savory are devoured to melodies from Appalachia and beyond.
THE DUCK RIVER DISPATCH
Intrepid correspondents journey from Austin's cozy jam scene to the wide world of
festivals. They bring back tunes and stories from the road. This issue we check in with Britt
Irick and Rose Griffith, who back in April drove 7 hours up the 35 corridor to the The
Greenleaf Old Time Music Festival in Braggs, Oklahoma.
The clear weather was perfection,
befitting of the state park's name, and the
jam circles formed easily throughout the
day. The attendance is still fairly small,
around 320 people this year. "Everybody
knows everybody," Britt remarks, "cause a lot of people are CROMA refugees." With the
Colorado festival now defunct, Greenleaf has become a new meeting spot. "Jams are
pretty magnetic there," he says, "start a jam, people see you and join in."
Of course the first question you've
gotta ask the weary travelers is,
"new tunes?" And they certainly
brought back a keeper, learning
"The Old She Possum Skating on
the Ice" from Tricia Spencer, a
great cut from a Jimmy Triplett
CD.
Los Fandangeros de Austin (L to R): Joanna Saucedo, Chris Ledesma, Rodrigo Leal, Carlos Salazar,
Marino Miranda, Erik Salinas, Jerónimo James Sexton Macias
The energy out of the gate was propulsive as Los Fandangeros de Austin took the
stage. Six string-slingers strummed jaranas of various sizes and types, with Joanna
Saucedo seated at the marimbol, thumping out bass lines. Their music hails from
Veracruz and features a powerful call-and-response structure, a social call to dance and sing
("made for convivio"). When not at the marimbol Joanna tapped out dance steps on a wooden
platform (a humble cube of 2x4s that I patched together during the height of the
pandemic, when learning some flatfooting steps). Quick-thinking Joanna slid a yoga mat
under the box to keep it from sliding across Batch's tile floor!
11
Rose, as a trusty backup guitarist,
focuses less on tune names and
more on the company and song. "I
don't necessarily learn the names of
the tunes. But I will say I was pretty blissed out for the entire week." One morning she
joined Marge Mullaney and Bob Atchinson and sang a "dynamite" version of Long
Journey Home, "one of the saddest songs in country
music."
There were workshops and vendors aplenty, and Britt
stopped by the Beautiful Music Violin Shop booth, in
from Kansas. "I was trying to avoid it, because I knew if I
went over there I would walk away with something." He picked up a Hopf violin and "it
played itself", so he didn't leave without it.
So get out next year to Greenleaf for tunes,
friends and fiddles, April 12-18, 2026

�STARGAZERS WHO CALL THE SHOTS
The Tuesday night jam at Stargazer, Springdale Station, attracts folks from all over Austin.
Let's get to know em! This issue we catch up with Tristan Walling.
Q: Hey Tristan! Tell us how you found the jam
A: I met Britt at my drawing meetup and he had a
tattoo of a banjo, and I was just starting to play
banjo. He invited me out to the jam.
Q: What are your strings of choice?
A: I have a Deering Goodtime that I usually
bring [that night he also brought an old Gibson
L3, on which he’s learning an old Bo Carter
tune, "The Lead's All Gone"]
Q: Best tune to play at a jam?
A: John Brown's f*****' Dream, man.
Q: What's the most old-time thing you do outside of a jam?
A: I grow my mustache. That’s for
music too. I’m currently working on a
project called The Chronicles of
Cowboy Buck
Q: At Genuine Joe’s, you noticed that
the standup bass was vibrating
through the old hardwood floors, that
it turned the place into a musical
instrument. You took it upon yourself
to learn how to say that in Japanese mind throwing that our way?
A:
Q: What does the jam mean to you?
5
A: I feel absolutely freed as a
musician. Came as an
absolute beginner and you
guys never kicked me out,
y'know what I mean? I feel
welcome in this whole group, man, and y’all feel like a family to me!

�THE GREAT DRONE MYSTAGOGUE
by Adam Brodkin
You can’t escape it. It’s ever present. Ubiquitous. Whether you’re out in the boondocks or
in the middle of a sprawling industrial urban center. It’s there whether you hear it or not.
It affects you whether you want it to or not. Sometimes subtly and sometimes overtly.
Every culture, on every continent, from the very beginning, has an indigenous form of it.
It can simultaneously separate your spirit from your body and drive you insane.
I’m not an ethnomusicologist, or an
academic, and I have no formal training
in music. I have followed the drone as a
guiding force in the music I have played
over the years. Heavy psychedelic rock
and roll, experimental music, and for the
last few decades old time and other
traditional folk music. It has been the
mainstay of the music I play with my
partner Aaron Zischkale in the Slaughter
Creek Drought Busters. I’ve communed
with the drone and found it to be a good
thing.
This small corner of Reel Times will be
dedicated to the drone, wherever I can
find it. Some drones I’ve been obsessed
with and would like to explore more in
2026 are Dwight Diller’s low G banjo
playing, the work of La Monte Young,
Isaan music of Northern Thailand,
Tuvan throat singing, and the music of
Sunn O))).

MAYDAY IN HILL COUNTRY
This May marked the 26th anniversary of a party held by Angie and Tim Wooten at their
place out in Hill Country. It's a bit of a trek from Austin, with a couple low-water crossings
that threaten to make the journey treacherous if there's been rain. But at the end of a
winding road atop a hill a host of partygoers gather. The centerpiece of the evening is the
maypole, where folks dance in two concentric circles, wrapping multicolored ribbons in a
criss-cross around the center. On the outer
orbit, a tall fiddle player skips in the opposite
direction of the nearest line of dancers. He's
Everett Wren, and has amassed years of
experience. "If I move counter to them, it
almost seems like it's moving faster. Little
psychological thing", he grins. In clusters
outside the spinning wheel a motley musical
procession forms to churn out a marching
step for the dancers: "St Anne's Reel", "Old
Molly Hare", "La Bastringue. " Folk music
circles collide as splashy Irish guitar (David
Rabinowicz) plays alongside fiddles, trilling
flute, clacking bones (Rich MacMath) and a
six-string clawhammer banjo (Bernard
Mollberg).
"It’s a happy feeling that you get when
everybody’s smiling outside, moving
around, instead of the way we usually are,
in our heads," Angie Wooten muses. "And
[the dance] puts people in their bodies and
you feel you’re interconnected. Kinda like
when we’re playing a tune in a circle, we’re
all playing the same tune so we’re
connected. In the Maypole everybody’s kind of got the same goal and they’re not
thinking about anything except 'up, down, over, under…'"
6
�Tim and Angie inherited the maypole from the Lady
Bird Johnson Wilflower Center, where they'd been
providing music for the annual event. It was first
hoisted up on their new property for a
groundbreaking project, and by the time the house
was built, it was May again. The tradition carries
on to this day, though a bit like the Ship of
Theseus. Tim recalls parts being replaced over
time. "Now, one year Seth, when it was time to take
it up (Seth's big and strong) so when he was wobbling
it to get it out of the ground he broke it in two." Every
year when the pole comes down Angie irons the ribbons,
until they get too ragged to keep. "It's the same maypole,
we've just had the pole and the ribbons replaced," Tim
smiles with a shrug. After the dance is done the night
goes late with Everett playing a square dance on a
homemade floor and little groups splitting off,
playing around warm crackling campfires.
Now one of the big selling points that was made to me when I first
attended a few years back was the breakfast. You play tunes until
late, Britt said, and you wake up and there's crepes. Sure enough on
Sunday morning there's Everett again, sharing a skill he'd picked up
from French friends while living in
Germany. "Our get-togethers, the focal
point, almost the whole reason we got
together was for a crepe specatular." His
way of giving back then is this big social
breakfast. What's more, Jeanne DeFriese
follows this up with a huge cast iron skillet
of migas with nopales (and by eleven o'
clock she'd refilled the huge coffee maker
seven times).
While folks gorge themselves on breakfast, the front porch is singing with gospel, country
and bluegrass. Nancy Griffith thumps out bass lines with her husband Robert singing crisp
harmonies alongside daughter Rose, as it has been since she was a kid. Others join the
jam,or just sit in rocking chairs watching a half-dozen flitting hummingbirds chase each
other around the array of feeders off the porch, set against an open blue sky. "We wouldn't
miss it for the world," Robert says. When prompted the trio each choose different favorites
from the weekend. For Robert, "Standing Room Only" from the Stanleys, for Rose it's the
Louvin Brothers' "My Baby's Gone," and Nancy picks "Stormy Waters", the one
popularized by Jimmy Martin.
Inside the adobe house is a
buzz of activity, and
Vanessa Gordon taps out
bouncy fiddle tunes from
the living room's piano.
Austin newcomer and
banjo player Janet Turley
reflects on her first Mayday.
"Just enchanting, magical,
all those words." There
were two competing oldtime jam circles the night
prior, and when one would
pause the silence would
bring the soft call of the
Chuck-wills'-widow, and a wafting of music from the other circle. Janet's favorite moment
was the jam shifting to cowboy songs, to Old Paint. Anther year with melodies and laughter
on the air, with many more to come.
Other choice tunes: "Callahan" in
cross tuning (with that sliding high
note), and one the Woots learned from
youtube, "Laughing Gravy"
Make sure to check out Everett's band Big Love
Car Wash, who play a blend of roots music
they call "erstwhile bluegrass" and by now have
had an album release show at the 04 Center on
June 4th

MAYDAY IN HILL COUNTRY
This May marked the 26th anniversary of a party held by Angie and Tim Wooten at their
place out in Hill Country. It's a bit of a trek from Austin, with a couple low-water crossings
that threaten to make the journey treacherous if there's been rain. But at the end of a
winding road atop a hill a host of partygoers gather. The centerpiece of the evening is the
maypole, where folks dance in two concentric circles, wrapping multicolored ribbons in a
criss-cross around the center. On the outer
orbit, a tall fiddle player skips in the opposite
direction of the nearest line of dancers. He's
Everett Wren, and has amassed years of
experience. "If I move counter to them, it
almost seems like it's moving faster. Little
psychological thing", he grins. In clusters
outside the spinning wheel a motley musical
procession forms to churn out a marching
step for the dancers: "St Anne's Reel", "Old
Molly Hare", "La Bastringue. " Folk music
circles collide as splashy Irish guitar (David
Rabinowicz) plays alongside fiddles, trilling
flute, clacking bones (Rich MacMath) and a
six-string clawhammer banjo (Bernard
Mollberg).
"It’s a happy feeling that you get when
everybody’s smiling outside, moving
around, instead of the way we usually are,
in our heads," Angie Wooten muses. "And
[the dance] puts people in their bodies and
you feel you’re interconnected. Kinda like
when we’re playing a tune in a circle, we’re
all playing the same tune so we’re
connected. In the Maypole everybody’s kind of got the same goal and they’re not
thinking about anything except 'up, down, over, under…'"

�STARGAZERS WHO CALL THE SHOTS
The Tuesday night jam at Stargazer, Springdale Station, attracts folks from all over Austin.
Let's get to know em! This issue we catch up with Tristan Walling.
Q: Hey Tristan! Tell us how you found the jam
A: I met Britt at my drawing meetup and he had a
tattoo of a banjo, and I was just starting to play
banjo. He invited me out to the jam.
Q: What are your strings of choice?
A: I have a Deering Goodtime that I usually
bring [that night he also brought an old Gibson
L3, on which he’s learning an old Bo Carter
tune, "The Lead's All Gone"]
Q: Best tune to play at a jam?
A: John Brown's f*****' Dream, man.
Q: What's the most old-time thing you do outside of a jam?
A: I grow my mustache. That’s for
music too. I’m currently working on a
project called The Chronicles of
Cowboy Buck
Q: At Genuine Joe’s, you noticed that
the standup bass was vibrating
through the old hardwood floors, that
it turned the place into a musical
instrument. You took it upon yourself
to learn how to say that in Japanese mind throwing that our way?
A:
Q: What does the jam mean to you?
5
A: I feel absolutely freed as a
musician. Came as an
absolute beginner and you
guys never kicked me out,
y'know what I mean? I feel
welcome in this whole group, man, and y’all feel like a family to me!

�BATCH
CRAFT BEER AND KOLACHES
STRING
BAND
SHOW
CASE
MAY 10, 2025
This past May marked the third String Band Show Case at Batch, an AFTM-hosted event
in which Austin old-time players take to the indoor stage in various string band incarnations
for an evening of raucous acoustic tunes. Frosty pints of beer flow and kolaches sweet and
savory are devoured to melodies from Appalachia and beyond.
THE DUCK RIVER DISPATCH
Intrepid correspondents journey from Austin's cozy jam scene to the wide world of
festivals. They bring back tunes and stories from the road. This issue we check in with Britt
Irick and Rose Griffith, who back in April drove 7 hours up the 35 corridor to the The
Greenleaf Old Time Music Festival in Braggs, Oklahoma.
The clear weather was perfection,
befitting of the state park's name, and the
jam circles formed easily throughout the
day. The attendance is still fairly small,
around 320 people this year. "Everybody
knows everybody," Britt remarks, "cause a lot of people are CROMA refugees." With the
Colorado festival now defunct, Greenleaf has become a new meeting spot. "Jams are
pretty magnetic there," he says, "start a jam, people see you and join in."
Of course the first question you've
gotta ask the weary travelers is,
"new tunes?" And they certainly
brought back a keeper, learning
"The Old She Possum Skating on
the Ice" from Tricia Spencer, a
great cut from a Jimmy Triplett
CD.
Los Fandangeros de Austin (L to R): Joanna Saucedo, Chris Ledesma, Rodrigo Leal, Carlos Salazar,
Marino Miranda, Erik Salinas, Jerónimo James Sexton Macias
The energy out of the gate was propulsive as Los Fandangeros de Austin took the
stage. Six string-slingers strummed jaranas of various sizes and types, with Joanna
Saucedo seated at the marimbol, thumping out bass lines. Their music hails from
Veracruz and features a powerful call-and-response structure, a social call to dance and sing
("made for convivio"). When not at the marimbol Joanna tapped out dance steps on a wooden
platform (a humble cube of 2x4s that I patched together during the height of the
pandemic, when learning some flatfooting steps). Quick-thinking Joanna slid a yoga mat
under the box to keep it from sliding across Batch's tile floor!
11
Rose, as a trusty backup guitarist,
focuses less on tune names and
more on the company and song. "I
don't necessarily learn the names of
the tunes. But I will say I was pretty blissed out for the entire week." One morning she
joined Marge Mullaney and Bob Atchinson and sang a "dynamite" version of Long
Journey Home, "one of the saddest songs in country
music."
There were workshops and vendors aplenty, and Britt
stopped by the Beautiful Music Violin Shop booth, in
from Kansas. "I was trying to avoid it, because I knew if I
went over there I would walk away with something." He picked up a Hopf violin and "it
played itself", so he didn't leave without it.
So get out next year to Greenleaf for tunes,
friends and fiddles, April 12-18, 2026

�FRESH SHELLAC
Rhiannon Gidden's staccato old-time banjo
pierces the warm summer drone of 17-year
cicadas, alongside the driving bow of her old
Carolina Chocolate Drops bandmate Justin
Robinson. They bring us the impromptu
energy of a back porch jam with eighteen
tunes begging to be learned and shared. From
killer takes on chestnuts (“Ebenezer”) to
intriguingly titled obscurities (“Duck’s
Eyeball”), this record is packed with energy
and will have your fingers itching to pick.
Not a ton of blockbuster films reference Charley
Patton, Geechie Wiley, and Rocky Road to
Dublin, so hopefully old-time fans caught Sinners
in theaters, a story of Black resistance and joy in
the Jim Crow-era South that director Ryan
Coogler spins into a universal statement about a
deeply human relationship to music, pleasure, and
spiritual danger. The album isn’t your usual oldtime fare but is well worth a listen for actor Miles
Caton’s gorgeous rendering of delta blues (he
impressively learned slide guitar for the role), and
an exclusive cut from Rhiannon and Justin.
3
West Virginia and Pennsylvania natives The
Wild Shoats released their first proper album,
full of both original fiddle tunes that would fit
nicely in a jam, and achingly emotional
songwriting. Just tuck into the opening strains
of “Clara” and be taken away as the band
applies the pulse of traditional fiddle to
sorrowful bury-me-not lyrics inspired by
Lonesome Dove. When singer and fiddler
Mary Linschield brings the last refrain up an
octave, it has me breaking out in goosebumps.
Gorgeous version of "Moonshiner" (and great
imagery about his breath) with buzzy baritone
harmonies from bandmate Augustus Tristch.
This was a huge help as I took to the board to double-chug some flatfoot steps during the
Dog Day String Band's set, to a certain possum-themed tune that just happened to be
mentioned in our Duck River Dispatch section. The Dogs include myself (fiddle and
mandolin) and Adam (upright bass and banjo), with Britt Irick fiddling and whacking
out rhythms on a banjo uke (the shrink-dried version of the banjo). He also picked up
12
�guitar for an unusually sweet Dock Boggs tune, the wistful old ballad "Papa Build Me a
Boat." Rose Griffith completes the group, lending lovely harmonies to Carter Family
tunes and bringing a powerful holler to Hazel Dickens' hard-luck number, "Busted."
A mainstay of the Show Case has been BYK, a power trio consisting of Joslyn Boyer
(upright bass), Zephyr Yellman (fiddle), and Tim Keough (fiddle and guitar). They
forged their sound from summer morning jams (I'll never forget hearing a phone recording
of their twin-fiddle harmonizing on the old PT Bell tune "Mace Bell's Civil War March."
The audience thrills every time Joslyn draws her bass bow from a h on the instrument and
bellows a melody. The three of them have curated a fantastic set, and I'm still blown away
at how deftly
Zephyr twists
the pegs of
his fiddle in
and out of
rich open
tunings to
lend each
piece a
unique
sound. The
highlight this
set was the
twisty,
BYK serenade at Batch (L to R, Joslyn Boyer, Zephyr Yellman, Tim Keough)
winding
"Dusty Miller" from Missouri's Gene Goforth, a tune Tim heard a few years back at
CROMA from Steam Machine's AJ Srubas. Zephyr wound up winning a ribbon at Clifftop
with the tune, and it wowed again at Batch. By this time of the night the place was packed,
and I squeezed through the line at the counter for my instruments for the last set. Near the
front door, Los Fandangeros played an impromptu happy birthday for a beaming girl, with
the crowded room stomping their feet behind the semi-circle of musicians. As the
Slaughter Creek Drought Busters, Adam and I atttempted to end with a nightcap,
soothing the room with a meditative acoustic drone, bathed in violet light he had rented for
the show. Using unique open tunings for fiddle and banjo, we conjured a long take on a
West Virginia tune learned from Dwight Diller, "Piney Woods." The tune unwound over a
sonic texture of bowed banjo (on loop from a guitar pedal), and a shruti box operated in
turns by Lindsey Zischkale and Heather Brodkin.
Another great night at Batch - huge thanks to Darrel Mayers with AFTM, and
Adam and Henry Brodkin for doing the hectic job of running sound, and
Gabriel Lit for giving us the space to share our music!
