Go right ahead.

I was just in Circuit City and the guy said that it sold like hotcakes today. Good job Maynard :thumbs-up:

Yeah, I personally sold 14,000 copies today. And boy am I tired!

i'm officially cheap again, so the copy you sent me will have to do maynard.

maynard, did you win the poster yet?

No, it seems someone else sold 20,000 copies yesterday and beat me out for the poster.

poor maynard. i'm sure if you hand out enough project pseudo flyers keyser will hook you up with something

Here's an interesting thing. I found it pretty Damn funny. It's a little story that they put together. It's a band Bio that they put out in comic book form with a limited number of advance orders of the album.

Band BIO

shameless plug whore, you make me look like a nun....
