You guys were super-mega-awesome at Scruffy's last night. We're going to make a cartoon and you guys are going to do the theme music and it will become legendary and we'll pay you with ice cream.
Thanks for coming up! I hope memories of Carlisle aren't too traumatic, especially since we totally forgot to get a good cursing! When I know my plans for the day at the bandstand I'll let you know, it'll be pretty exciting for you to equally beguile and bewilder a town-square full of curious onlookers.
I'm going to Lancaster tomorrow, so if you tell me all your tour dates I'll pop into the Golden Lion to see what they have free.
