A word from Stevie Coyle and the Waybacks!

Greetings, Valued Customers -

Must be brief ... tribe of nattily-dressed teenage male bipeds engaging in disturbing behavior here at the usual coffee joint. Boisterous conversation periodically punctuated (no pun intended) with the phraselets "El Oh El!" its extended variant, "El oh el oh el oh el!!!" and in particularly high-spirited moments what sounds like perhaps "Roffle Mayo!" What is this? Robot laughter? Martian mind control? Most disturbing ...

Well, no point in getting too fromaged off about it. We have lots of gigs to tell you about, and doggone it, this time we'll get right to them. No foolin'! Permit us to take just the briefest detour, however, to encourage you to visit the website of The Coolest Invention Ever. It's called TV - B - Gone and your friendly neighborhood Waybacks have been using it to improve our lives wherever we go. It's a remote control that does one thing and it does it well. It turns off televisions. Opportunities to use it present themselves daily, we assure you.

That is all.

Here's the gigs:
