Gravity Head lineupdate: A Final Five waiting as the ranks thin.

Gravity Head 2010 is ending strong, and the supremacy of the cosmic laws governing gravity have been proven indubitable, as expected.

At NABC's Pizzeria & Pub, 11 listed selections are on tap, 44 have fallen, and the final five patiently await their turns. Pretty good for 26 business days. By the first full week of April, we'll be down to just a handful remaining ... although there'll be a designated "gravity" tap pouring a beer of mass and substance the whole year round.

To see what's next in line to replace the current lineup, please go to the NABC web site. This new link takes you directly to the draft list.

And: You may download the 2010 Gravity Form if you haven't already. All the printed copies have been distributed.
