I just wnated to let you know that I've been playing the demo cd eric gave me at Fellini's. I can't tell you how many people ask "Who is this, I really like them." Keep on keepin on, and let the good folk of the Big EZ (aka the 3rd world country) know when you'll be gigging here. You know I'll help pack your show.
I miss y'all so much. Esp. since I don't have to be sleazy's designated driver every night. Oh, and Big... you owe me breakfast (and an anvil, but we can forget about that... right?)
CHECK, CHECK, CHECK, IT OUT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
