nicee!
the summer is getting lovely here down south! I really wanna see you guys play! :)

As for San Fran, I'm actually supposed to take a trip up north soon in a few months, to Seattle, and of course I'll be passing by SF! :)

Until then I will glady love a piece of chocolate. And if you smoke, I'll save you a cig, or just a Jager bomb. :p Tomohira's cd still bumps in my player to this day! Do you guys have the album on vinyl? I need you guys whilst I picnic in the park with my lovely. :D

növëmbër.
