Hey thanks, man. Ya, I'm REALLY diggin the song, too. I heard the original (cover) and I was like DDAAAYYYUUUMMM! I pretty much just put it on repeat whenever I can. haha
Glad to hear you and Mandy haven't been eaten by giant water buffalo or anything. When do you guys get back into SD? I'm itchin for a road trip! And to ruin your work's sound system. :)
Yo yo yo, you should be able to reduce the latency in the preferences by reducing the buffer size fo shiggity. After exploring, I can honestly say Live is the dopest audio program I've ever user and now 7 incorporates video. Let me know if you need any assistance homeslice.
What the bizzness izz holmes. Thanks for the props on the new jams, been pumpin it up as much as possible these days. I'll have to come down there again a bump some new shit on those monstrous auditorium speakers! Party on.
We're thrilled that you have become a 'friend!' We hope to woo you with song and see you evolve from 'friend' to über-fan soon enough. Check the tunes out on iTunes, they sound better there than on myspace. The link is on our main page.
If you buy the album on iTunes we'll be your best friends for life. You are quite blatantly badass, oh, new friend of ours. =)

Move was good man, not too hectic. Went on a quick vacation and did some camping right when we got up here. Now we're watching my cousins' 3 kids and house for two weeks while the parents are in Italy, haven't even gotten the chance to really settle in.
That's sweet about Brazil dude, I'm sure it will be an awesome experience! Just don't come back with a Brazilian wax, that is really uncool for dudes. Also, Brazil is the number one producer of beef after the U.S. so enjoy a juicy steak for me holmes, DELICIOUS!
Partied it up with Jon a little on Friday. We agreed that that the Bay Area (even WITH San Francisco) is less gay than San Diego so...make it happen broski.
yeah, that whole "tearing down the apt to make room for a shopping mall" happened when i was on the other side of the country, but you better believe i'm opposing that shit. since i'm unemployed i'm down to go to SD for st. patty's, but it's all about convincing jonathan over here. i'll do my best. tell mandy i said hello!
What's good, playa? I was trying to view the website, but it wasn't coming out right. Probably cause I was using lame Explorer. I'll check it later when I get home. The main graphic looks tight though. Anyway, my e-mail is jengquist@gmail.com and I'll try sending you what I have of my latest creations. If nothing else, you could use 'em as loops or something. Alright homie, late.
