They were a secret warm up show at Winters, a local Pacifica neighborhood bar; the wedding of Christopher Gallagher, a long time fan of the band; a free, all-ages benefit for shark research organizations, Ocean Research Foundation and Shark Stewards, which was held at the Speakeasy Brewery in San Francisco. On December 1, the band played its first official show with Farwell on drums supporting for of Misery (Japan) at Harlows in Sacramento, CA.
