I almost forgot to mention that I bumped into an old Valpo Vineyard friend last night at The Roxy. I stepped up to the bar for some refreshments, and turned around to take a look at the band rocking out on stage, and Nathaniel Balon was seated at his sweet Slingerland kit ON STAGE AT THE ROXY! It was surreal. Nathaniel is now rockin' the LA scene, and it was so sweet to bump into him at the Hotness show.
