Yeah I love everyone in Richmond. I miss living down there, there is always something going on and you can walk everywhere. I've gained 10 pounds since I graduated and moved back home cause I've gotta drive everywhere up here :(

LA show was super rad, got to watch the soundcheck and sit sidestage. SOMA was having guitar problems so he had to use Gentry's(Eagle Twin) acrylic bc rich mockingbird. One of the assholes working at the venue broke the headstock off of Greg's gold top les paul.

The sound guys are super rough with equipment at the venue, I had my model t and v4 ripped off the stage with speaker cables and power chords swinging around.

Noted thanks! Only place I've ever played in LA was the knitting factory, and we were on the small stage. Nothing like rolling Sunn Stacks through a shopping mall to pack em in a bathroom :lol:

Supporting Earth in a couple of weeks, opening for Sunn 0))) as well would make my year...
