Pointdexter – Perfection Will Find Its Place (at Sacramento State Battle of the Bands)

June 19, 2009

Here’s yet another video from the CSUS battle of the bands, which took place on May 4, 2009. When I was in a band, we played with Pointdexter several times, and they’re all really cool people. The bass player is a more recent addition, so he’s the only one in the band I don’t really know, but he seems pretty talented.
