now that we've relocated we wanted to drop a line and hopefully we're not to late to say happy new year.
Also, we've released two projects to start the new year, from Shawn Tracy and Jon Crocker, we would love it if you stopped by and gave them a listen...
this thing is sweet, it shows you if anyone at school has a crush on you. i just tried it and it really works, some of the people who like me really suprised me lol.
I just wanted to say "We Are Not Ashamed" was one of my FAV albums in high school (along w/ all the metal I was listening to). Anyway, you guys rocked, & I'd love to hear another LC album, as well as a remaster of "Fun Fun Feeling" like you did w/ WANA. Thanks for all the good memories!
