aww shucks... thanks.

i'm going to put the album up for purchase on my website, but I didn't press that many of them, so they're going in and out of "stock"

if you wait a couple of weeks, its going to be up iTunes... i'll probably make a little post here about it or something...

any critiques/bashes/suggestions on the new one?

Random movie quote to make you seem hip and "with it": Dr. Peter Venkman: I make it a rule never to get involved with possessed people. Actually it's more of a guideline than a rule.

Circles - liked it a whole lot, not too much to critique really.

Wisemen - solid

Summer Sun - my favorite of the bunch, the sax is sick, great song all of the way around

What all do you plan doing for the album? Are you leaving these solo or are you adding in the conga player and sax player?

thanks man... the album was going to be a demo ep but i ended up with too many songs haha. so its like a polished collection of demos that i'm going to use to get studio time.

it's mostly just solo acoustic but the sax guy is on three of the tracks - i gave you guys the exact album cut of summer sun - so that'll give you an idea of the quality.

thanks for the feedback - i'm pumped about the rest of my project haha.
