Hello Kool Drool! I wanted to say hi, and thank you for Foggy Notions Vol. I that somehow crossed my way one day... It's been two years now, but it's still good! All the best, E.A. R x
Sorry bout the group mail (despite your name being cunningly added into the first line. How did I do that?)
Anyways, stuck up some new recordings of songs we did in the album session in Electrical Audio. None of the songs are mastered yet and there are a couple of tweaks here and there to be done but I thought I"d stick em up so you could get a listen before the album is released.
I"m gonna rotate the songs on an as unyet decided basis (weekly, biweekly, triweekly even??) and include songs that didn"t make the final cut. Watch out for them...
The songs up now are There You Stand, This Is How We Play and Home.
tonights the night¬! going to deerhunter and yacht after college ---will you b there? got something for u in my bag... ! by the way have u seen my owl? its missing,.
I heard you were in New York for a week, AND YOU DIDN'T EVEN LET ME KNOW!?!?!?? You are officially cut out of the will, and you're not getting the Bumble & Bumble gift basket I was going to bring you for Christmas. In fact, I may just stay here for Christmas, I'm so insulted. When everyone's asking for me in December and I'm not there, TELL THEM IT'S YOUR FAULT!!!
