Trevor Dunn Trio Convulsant
CommentThe Hemlock Tavern is a very cool bar with a very small space for shows in the back and tonight it was packed with about 50 people for this early evening show

The trio had been out on the road supporting The Melvins but The Melvins had just canceled the tour because of illness and there is some Melvins bashing going on.
