Notes

Tonight's show was a steaming hot mess of California Lovin' from Howard Wiley and his merry crew. Delightfully disorganized, the show began with a short monologue from Chris Riggins that had more than a few audience members chortling at his prattle.

Andrew Gilbert posted a nice promo article about Howard with SFCV.
