GIMME TINNITUS

So, Parts & Labor will be playing their final(?) show tonight at 285 Kent with Oneida, Neptune, and Noveller filling out the bill. Disc jockeying duties will be performed by Patrick Stickles the DJ and DJ Scalpel, Please. Jokes about reuniting to cash in will be told. Some (but probably not all) of these songs will be played.
