Hallo !!
...I listen to your Archive a week late on Wed. A.M.s so I can catch MaryWing in this timeslot
- so just saw this morning you played the title track off my friend Glenn Hicks' band's new album St. Astronaut last week !
Glenn condescended to play with us here in smalltown NewHampshuh in a basement band - but had to go back to Bloomington - & he's got his great band Griffy out there :

I'm real proud of his talents & I appreciate you featuring that.
