Hiya cats and kittens.
I really enjoyed your songs. An impressive set to say the least (even with the sound problems) I hope we can play again in the future. I'm thinking about putting on a show at the Turnstyle in Maple Ridge with you, us, Painted Cities, and maybe Familia...Whatcha think?
Anyway. Good stuff.
Matt.
