Oh man. I can't stop laughing at the "butt rocker" comment. I'm so glad you're on the forum!

Guess I'll be seeing you soon in Urbana? Looking forward to it!

Cool avatar, it reminds me of the cover to Baby 81.

Hey, sorry it took me such a long time to write back. I don’t get on here that much. Yeah, the band didn’t look to good at Headliners. I thought the show was pretty good other than the fact they cut it so short but you could tell they were worn out, especially Robert. I can’t believe how many shows they did in 2007. I was really shocked to find out that they are doing another North America tour again so soon. I really think they deserve a break. I was also surprised they are coming to Kentucky twice! I was going to go to the Dame but I can’t go so I might try the other show.
Oh, and no I never did get to see the Black Angels here. The one show I didn’t get to go to because I had tickets for another show that night. The other one I didn’t even know about. I had talked to Alex from the band a long time ago and he said that they should be back around in April so I am defiantly saving my money for that! So how have you been doing?

Ronettes, best heard live i feel. If it's ever recorded, i reckon it'll cheapen it, i don't think i'd want to hear a studio version. By the way, you seriously need some new strings for that guitar.
