Amazing show tonight! ("Lights down by 40 percent.." such precision!)
It was great to hear the songs through a BIG sound system instead of my measly headphones, where they've been living all week.

Hey, I'm just dropping by to say how much I am loving the music. I had a great time seeing y'all in St.Augustine and I can recall popping in the single as soon as I woke up the next morning. And I've listened to it everyday since! I absolutely adore it so much! Thanks to Ben and Jorge for talking to me and my friends and not being repelled by our craziness! Keep up the amazing work throughout the tour and come back to Florida sometime. I'll be sure to catch y'all again.
AMAZING BABY
