**  This is a two day benefit my good friend, Elijah.
Just weeks before US and European tours in support of Uck Life, his band's December 2012 debut, a speeding car hit Elijah as he was crossing the street to his house. He suffered a litany of injuries (shattered pelvis, fractured shoulder, broken femur, chipped teeth, torn ligaments, brain damage) and will be in a wheelchair & out of work for several more months.
Join us at Slim's for two days, on two stages to celebrate Elijah's 24th birthday and raise him as much cash as possible.  100% OF THE PROCEEDS WILL GO TO ASSISTING WITH ELIJAH'S HOSPITAL & MEDICAL BILLS.  $10 minimum donation $18 minimum donation for two-day pass You can also buy one of 99 limited run cassettes and cds of a new compilation of Paint Fumes covers featuring Bloodhshot Bill, Spider Bags, Burglar Fucker, The Love Language, Nathan Toben of Toddlers, Flesh Wounds, Black Zinfandel, Gross Ghost, Organos, Nerve City, Matt Park of Airstrip, Drag Sounds, The Nervous Ticks, Useless Eaters, Estrangers, Bitter Resolve, and LODRO (members of Royal Baths and Friends). All proceeds go to Elijah. 

  ***  I am moving back to Miami.  That's right.  No more Virginia. And I will have the pleasure of playing my first show back with two of my favorite bands and great friends.  This night will be serious.
