I think that after your successful 4th self-titled album, L&R, it seems, the band got seduced by the LA lifestyle. I always wondered why, after songs like Life in Laralay, An American Dream, LA got the best of you. That is my impression as a loving fan. Would love to hear about that.

Urge was how I found hot chocolate but whoa, sisters of mercy laid the blue print for em. So cool, love when that happens. Thank you fmu, and as a few close friends might ask, why don’t you haven’t you listened to the sisters of mercy? I am. Thank you fmu

We don't take you for granted either, and appreciate the time and dedication you put into this show, especially today! Missed part of it due to a call, will catch up in the archives. First hour was absolutely amazing, and the last bit too. I'm sure archive me will be very happy to get the middle bit! Happy Friday everyone.
