Hotter than Hades here and I ain't got no A/C back in the recording room but I'll get something done.

Man, hot here too, in Roma. These people don't do A/C. Just back from the hookah bar and a stroll through Campo di Fiore. These people DO know how to do nightlife, tell you what.

 

And damn I just remembered that I'm 6 or 7 hrs AHEAD of youse guys. Guess I'll go try recording something in the palazzo stairwell.
