Naw we didn't talk err nothin' I like kinda sorta tried to say something as you went from the front of the boat to the back b4 your set, but I was sitting down and kinda missed it. No worries. That show was so rad. I had to txt message one of the Bastidas crew to find the damn boat though!
The sound was so wide open and you were tight as hell. Plus I liked yr rapper/singer addition.
