Jun 30, 2008 - 5:36:51 PM


By Chris Vetter, torch contributor

Torch Indy Reporter Chris Vetter sees dozens of indy shows all over the Midwest, and regularly watches & reviews indy DVDs. His reports covering the entire U.S. Indy Scene are usually published exclusively here at PWTorch.com every Monday and Friday.

WEEKEND RESULTS, NEWS & NOTES

Welcome back everyone! Vacation was quite good to me, as I watched the Minnesota Twins sweep the Padres in San Diego. But, I’m back at home and getting to your indy results!
