!!! In-Store Performance

!!! In-Store Performance permalink

There is no need, we repeat, no need to question whether Columbus, OH knows how to shake it’s ass. When !!! hit the stage at our Columbus store, people got freakier than a P-Funk show. This is yet another reason why you need to get thee to one of the FreeYrRadio in stores this Summer. This event was hosted by the internet-only Ohio.fm, a small station of do-gooders who bring it to you raw and uncut from the Ohio State campus. (Donate to Ohio.fm.)
