Great show last night. Your set was too short for my liking but overall your music kicked ass. Jai really impressed me with her vocals which totally blew me away. I also bought a copy of Fragments and I love it. I do hope to see you guys again. You guys sounded awesome live. Thanks for coming to Minneapolis :).
