Yeah, Coming Home should've taken it ALL in RnB, or at LEAST have been in that Top 3.

These judges were REALLY tough, and I can't say that I agreed with all of their choices.

Sigh. Love ya Jill.

-call sometime. I keep missing you, and we REALLY are moving to England.
The other BIG BIG news is: I just got invited by School of Product Recall and Kenny Colgate (Romulus X Records UK), who plays bass on their CD, urrr.... What I'm trying to say is - as soon as we can GET our butts to England, I'll be living in Leicester (pronounced "Lester", for you american fools out there), and playing BASS for Product Recall, while School plays guitar in Conversation Suicide, for as long as he can stand it.

I know it's still a ways off goal is by fall/winter of 2010, but it's PRETTY fuckin' AMAZING i'n it?

You've got many phans in your corner, voting for DirgeK and "Coming Home".
Simply AWESOME tune, it is.
