Iron and Wine, the Shis, Sufjan, Sigur Ros, and Radiohead? That's a chill workout man. I'm not worried about you rushing through your sets!

+1 for those Paramore jams. Now you need to sprinkle in some Cobra Starship. Fangs up, dude!
ReplyDeleteCongrats on the 10lbs! That's awesome.
Hmm, that's quite a selection you've got there. And, yes, congrats on the 10lbs. as well.
