Hey, I thought about your comment the other night, about how hard it is being a musician. Yes the gear doesn't get any lighter. Yes the gigs are usually deplorable. But what you contributed to my album is pure fucking magic. Please please please please don't stop playing.
Well I made it to Ft. Worth last week and I can't get you to holla back so I missed you. I was going to make the drive to A in hopes we could hang out! Hope you are doing well
Wow! Is Stubb's in Austin? You saw Nels Cline? You met Nels Cline? How crazy is that? He played your guitar? Aaahhhh! Well, that's something that doesn't happen everyday! And I thought seeing Wilco here was cool. Meeting Nels takes the cake! Hope all's well. Will you be back our way anytime soon? -Lee
How's one of my two favorite scorpios doin'? You know who the other one is. I see him, but where are you? Maybe you're boxing. Throw in a punch or two for me as long as it's an inanimate object.
I co-starred with our friends on a new music video. Here it is. Hope you like it; it was just a recorded, spontaneous moment. Hope you like it. Btw, it was great seeing you when you were home. I had hoped I could stop by again, but never got the chance.
