ČECHOMOR
A SMASH HIT AT ACSCC
On Saturday,
September 30, 2006, Čechomor played to a record crowd (for
ACSCC) of over 200 wild fans. The old clubhouse was rocking,
the walls were shaking, the lights were flashing and the audience
was screaming for more...and they got more. It was a truly
great concert. Click the link below to see concert photos.
