Yes Will. MBV totally earned my friendship. And that's hard to do. I'm very picky. Did that show make you feel weird all day? I feel bizarre...

Sublime to hear you cats as ever, I especially appreciated the very-Ornette-leaning-passages during the long jam, brought back some deep resonances. Message me with your e-mail and I will put you on the Latin-Jazz list; Joe Falcon (the bass player) is a big free fan too... Perhaps the three of us could jam out some time? I pedict: illness!

I heard you are killing it in the new Baldwin line-up; look forward to catching the full group sometime in the next few months, Nat was "ill" tonight on his own.

Hope you're doing well man, look forward to running into you sometime soon.

YES, let the shopping spree commence! CAN I measure the MILES of SKELETONS on the road to the future? Alas, no.

But I can say again that you guys were tight and sick tonight. You will kill.
