hay hay, I found this vid about the secret. THe secret is a lot like riding the pony. It's good to know that shit is going around! It's like the White Life as apposed to the black death, and I know it will be much more contagious.
See the last two video's in my blog on my other page for sure!
I need to explain itches and crying sleep that way. That is another big secret!
Have a day!

I completely agree. I was editing the interview last night, and I thought that it was thoroughly enjoyable and fantastically unprofessional. Therefore, the best type.

My friends, I hope you're not exhausted of live music after NXNE, because I'd like to personally invite you for a drink and a smile at our musical party this Thursday, June 19th at Sneaky Dee's. We'll be accompanied by a couple of very energetic & powerful bands (ADA & The Isosceles Project) that will make for an especially high-caliber soirée.

Here's the event listing (I assure you this link is not hazardous):

Thank you immensely, guys. Please persist in your collective goodness.

Peace, respect & good karma.
