This write-up is well overdue, but no one reads it anyway… the last Friday of January (January!? Woah this is overdue…) at Mr Wolf’s could well have been Slack Dads’ last appearance there. Hard to believe, but the devastating news dropped just a few weeks after Mixless and Bad Dad shook the venue to its… [Read more…]
