Longwave Tour Diary: Towson, MD
After a series of challenges involving natural disasters and some personnel changes (among other things), NY indie rockers Longwave are back on the road as of last week. Currently opening for OK Go, we've asked that they report back to us while on tour by regularly filling out and returning a questionnaire to Blender.com. Below is the first installment of Longwave's tour diary.
