For it has to be Rubber duc…..only because I had no idea who they were when my friend Taryn said at a prior performance that she was going to see a performer with Rubber Duc, and all I could pic was her watching the performance in a Rubber duc….???? This made me explore these talented artists, and now I’m in love!!! ????

I don’t want to pick the SHORTSTRAW because I am very keen to get my MANGO GROOVE on while jamming with RUBBER DUC’s in the CIVIL TWILIGHT to the sweet musical fire started by a little GRASSY SPARK. I don’t want to sound like a LUNATIC WOLF who ate too much CHERRY VINYL but please send some GOODLUCK my way by sending me to SplashyFen 2016 so that I can jump on my STONEJET and feel like an ADVENTURE MAN! #localislekker
