OK, LISTEN UP!

I’m a busy guy, OK? I got shit to do. Bill to pay. I have like, 11 jobs, alright?

I’d love to update this site frequently. I plan on doing it. In the near future. But just because I never touch this site DOESN’T mean that the library isn’t totally kicking ass right now. We have over 600 books! The entire bookshelf we use to house them is full. FULL! That’s awesome.

Thanks everyone who was kind enough to mail us their books for free. I was going to hand write letters to all of you thanking you for your contributions, but we’ve just received so many.

In the meantime, come to a show! If you go to our Facebook page you will find a full calendar of events. Come to any of those shows and hang out with the door person. Read books! Talk books! All our door people have read a lot of books!
