hey troops... it's not long until we can be together again... the album is finished apart from one middle eight that i'm going to get gwen wot goes out with simon to sing on but otherwised it's all mixed and sounding delish... i went to the guitar hero launch party which is the only party i have been to since i decided to employ the silence, cunning and exile motto and it was great... i was so drunk that it took a couple of days to get my sight back... i left a massive chunk of my dignity somewhere in a bar in hoxton but came away with a free plastic guitar and some mild liver damage... i digress... it is so good to be finishing up a record... i'm getting some friends from philly to do the artwork and my other friend produced it and basically this time around i'm dealing exclusively with people who are rad and no one grumpy is allowed to enter my aura at all... i'm not a scientologist or anything i just like smiles... peace and fucking.....believe xxx
