Where Do Zombies Come From?
There is a great deal of confusion about how one becomes a zombie. The only way to become a zombie is by being bitten by a zombie. Every year, however, thousands of Americans are misdiagnosed as zombies. The Center for Disease Control attributes the majority of these cases to overexposure to infomercials. The Center also states that false-positive zombie reports tend to increase every four years in conjunction with presidential debates.
They are amazing in concert. If it were something like CCR without Fogerty, I’d be concerned, but Rod & Colin are the living Zombies
Would love to bring my sister to the orange peel tomorrow when she gets in town to see the zombies!
Is he rich like me?

“But if you need a reason
I’ll give one to you
Oh, yeah, you make me feel good”
How many more first-generation British Invasion bands are going to come through Asheville? And with two, count ’em, two original members? Seriously, though, I’m glad they’re still around.
It is the two most prominent members though.
The other musicians are no joke though. They’ve all been around a long time and have played with some of the greats.
I won, btw! 😉
I wanna win!
