Ahoy Jesse,
It means a lot, thank you very much. Hope everything has been going great with you, music, label, personally, and beyond. Let me know when your back in the area/when you can meet up. Would be awesome to meet up. I can give you an 'official' copy of the album then too.
Be Well, Be Strong, Be America,
Alex
p.s. met a handful of your JDub mates the other night at the Joe's Pub event. Thought it relevant, if not, I'll wear the ass hat. Alright, brother, so long.

I'm so torn as to whether I want to/need to spend the summer there, or if I would be better served hanging out in the NY.
