I just wanted to let you know that you can now pick up my debut album "American Nightmare" for only three dollars. A lot of time and work went into the record so I hope you like it!
If you'd like to pick it up, click on the big album cover in the right hand column of my profile.
AHH!! I'm planing my MPMF stops, to which I really want to make it to see you guys, but I may be working Friday morning. If not though, I'll be there!!!
