Here's an invite for you from the Slow Drags:

Hello Slow Drag fans, it’s a long belated welcome-back newsletter. We have some exceptionally good news to tell you fine folks. On July 23, 2011, the long-awaited double album – We Will Be Forgotten - from Scotland Barr and the Slow Drags will be released to the public. In conjunction with this splendid event, we’ll also be playing a CD release show at Dante’s. Details on the show will be forthcoming, but it will be an all-star lineup. For now, put July 23rd in your calendar as the day you mustn’t make other plans on so you can come out and see the band live and pick up a copy of our 2 ½ year odyssey. While it’s taken far longer than what we intended, the double album is packed with great music. Half of the tracks are sung by Scotland, with the remaining tracks coming from local musicians that have had strong ties with the band. We are proud of the work we’ve done and we can’t wait to let you all hear it. Thank you for sticking with us, for donating time and money to the band, and for keeping hope alive. This album is a testament to Scotland’s songwriting and the unbridled creativity that he held. Take care – we’ll see you on July 23 at Dante’s.
