Trailer Park: Descendents Documentary Makes All Of Our Days
There’s not a whole lot to say. I’m super ampted about this doc and that’s about all there is. RIGHT?! Here’s a cover of one of my favorite Descendents songs, and while the original can’t be beat…for obvious reasons I love this cover: And here’s the first song I heard from them, way late »
Puppetmaster: I Am Big Bird Documentary Will Probably Make You Weep
