Fifteen because George tagged me on Facebook to do a FRF(ifteen) and I'm too lazy to customize. Also, Facebook appears to accept only like six or seven lines per entry.
Help?
I like the strangeness and the arc. Sorry no post today, but I'm in ATL for a Dirty Projectors show, which was pretty amazing. Hopefully I'll be able to write it up.
