Etc November Reign 2011

Unexpected appearance of the mugs of 'tuneful... noisesmiths' Etc in the paper! Foreign 3-Way :: Bottlesmoker + Etc + Free Deserters is the week's top gig pick in today's Straits Times. And what an honour: it was chosen by Dino from beloved national treasures of Singapore: Force Vomit (and 1234X and The Guilt). Surprised we

beat out more professionally-run photo-jennies BOTTLESMOKER and Free Deserters when it came to the photo editor's choice.
