YHC has been down with allergy and sinus crap for WAY TOO LONG.  Been itching for the gloom.  Sitting in the “Birmingham International Airport, Flower Supply, Laundromat and Taxidermy” – YHC noticed a big blank on the Q list for today’s metal.  Before airplane mode was called, YHC quickly downloaded some old BB.  You know what time on an airplane and some old BB means for the PAX?  Nothing good… that’s for sure.

What happened next went something like this:

• We don’t need no stick’n Mary!

NMM

• Some of you guys sounded like IRS accountants trying to calculate Trumps taxes over there.  Apparently Mint Hill can only count to 500.
• Sorry some of you couldn’t keep the cadence and the M&M beat separate.  #musicfail
• Great work today Sandbag!  Normally we’d say, “It doesn’t get easier, but you get stronger.”  Maybe we should say, “We’ll try to make it harder.”  Seriously though – good work and welcome.  Good group of guys here in MH.
• Big announcement – CONVERGENCE!!  Invite everyone you know to come out tomorrow for our 2 year anniversary convergence.  We want to make a scene at The Vet tomorrow (for the right reasons).
• As always – an honor to lead.  Thank you for the opportunity.  It was good to be back out.
