Hey there Figgs fans -
My band The Thirteen has a new CD out. Pete D. produced and recorded the thing, as well playing bass and keyboards all over it. We'll be playing our CD release show with the Figgs in Philly on 10/26, but if you are interested check out our MySpace thingy by searching for "The Thirteen Philly". Much obliged for the time and consideration.
