    To the people who, for some reason, submitted a setlist without timestamps: your ineptitude would make even Chris Ballew angry. You should repent.

    This band can pick you up in any mood. Something about the minimalist approach and the awesome hooks, just nothing like them. Holds up very well after all these years. Hugely underrated drummer - he's their secret weapon.

    If you read the book about the industry do's & don'ts called "Indie 911" there's a spot where the Presidents were with others doing a showing for "industry only" big wigs and out of nowhere the power went out except for one amplifier on stage. In pro fashion the only one to hop up there and keep things moving was Ballew grabbing a guitar and rocking it on the fly. Well deserving of a contract in my opinion. Pure Beast.
