no doubt man we had a really good time. if you were to make one of the stemms show i would actually suggest june 8th instead of the 31st. the 31st were not really taking serious or telling many people about - kinda just a dress rehearsal for the 8th when we all graduate and WILD OUT. but obviously would be cool to see you at either. and yeah - lets all chill this weekend...
Hey James! OMG, you're all grown up! Just wanted to say thanks for all those free movies from Chimneys... sure hope that's not the reason they went under. ;-)
okay, i realize your birthday was like, five days ago.
and i thought: man, i should write james a birthday poem!
and then i thought: when's the last time i wrote a poem?
so, being out of the habit of writing poems, or regularly checking myspace, i'm hoping a belated b-day and warmest life wishes will suffice. :)
Thanks for the tix. I have a nagging suspicion that the original ones were in the balcony. But the seats rocked, and I appreciate you going through the pile to get us some good ones. Hang in there. And continue the Alliance!
thanks man - glad u like it. its funny you say that b/c turn it up was meant to be this summers party jam, but i slept on it too late. oh well. there's probably some finishing touches to be done on pace, and the other songs too, but i was sick of just sitting on them for so long...
finally, for your listening pleasure, a near complete version of the nailbiters sample track me and my boy did. its the one called PACE (my site's not really ready tho so i gots no friends)
