want to buy something? were broke email tummyrock @ yahoo.com
old news: Old Shoes is the solo acoustic "band" made up of Tyson Ballew and an occasional friend. It was born March 25 2001 after opening for Battery Operated Boyfriend a great local Great Falls Band. The sound has changed alot and is now primarily positive/acoustic/punk. I would however like to start a rocking kick ass band called Boutros! Boutros! Gali! Please email me if you want to rule the earth, by an album or play a show. learn more at www.oldshoes.tk
