On this day in 2005 Tullycraft and Boyracer played at the Stork Club in Oakland, CA. The Portland band, Blitzen Trapper contacted us about getting on the bill, but there were already two opening bands – so I said “no”. I think Cori (Tullycraft) is still upset at me for doing that. Today we have Pretentious Headline Band Ego Problem by Boyracer recorded live on John Peel’s radio show.
