You can find the answer below, although you should be warned that the songs come off much better live and the production on the demo these are taken from leaves a lot to be desired. But, should you wish to see the live incarnation, you can do so this Saturday, June 2, at a house party in Tempe. It's called the Sesame Street Saturday Shindig, at 213 E. Sesame St in Tempe, starts at 2 pm, and costs just two bucks. Other bands on the bill include Attack of the Giant Squid, Porches, Data Storm, Slut Sister, I Wish I, An Aesthetic, and Regan MacNeil (who are also mentioned in this week's column).
