overexposure to bad music and rock websites has ground down my soul into a fine dust

Upon thinking that there must be a band named Falcon Crest, I had high hopes that they'd be creatively bankrupt coldwave. But they appear to be okay Twin Cities Huskplacments punk.

Hey does anybody know where that T.Hanks photo is from? I saw it in real life, and I can't place where or when. Is it in Montreal? Or Chicago? or Austin? It seems like some Austin shit now that I think about it.
