This Friday will mark a very sad day for us here at Three Imaginary Girls. Harvey Danger will be playing their last all ages show ever at the Vera Project on Friday, 8/28, and the final 21+ show the following night at the Crocodile. Harvey Danger is a TIG favorite, a soundtrack to many of [...]
As August 18th nears and the primaries grow ever closer, the Three Imaginary Girls encourage everyone to do their civic duty AND shake that booty. Make sure to mail in those primary ballots on time. Make P-Diddy proud! You know he’s watching you from afar with a giant white “Vote or Die” [...]
