LGS Reunion

In all the universe there is but one globe on which the conditions are in such a balance as to produce life. On that globe, only the thin crust is actually inhabitable by living things. Of that, the majority is covered by water, leaving little room for the nations of man. But man has flourished, and what can we say is his highest purpose? Music. Sweet music. There was once a time when none of this was possible, and there will yet be a time when this organization will be unthinkable, because minds will cease to be. But in that narrow window where once shone the greatest star, there burned strong and bright at its center a group of individuals banding together under a common goal and a common name.

They were called Lime Green Shirt.

ARCHANGEL
ELIJAH
AEGIS
SYLOCK

Join us and witness a rare event. All four core members of the elite team of musical warriors known as LGS under the same roof. Playing music all night (or at least til close) for you.
You.
You magnificent bitches.
