0:06.2	It's Tuesday, March 8th. And this is unusual that I would release one on Tuesday, but I
0:15.1	give you a little rundown of what went down yesterday. I was on serious radio with
0:21.4	Todd Shapiro for a couple of hours, had my phone off. And when I came out of the interview, I
0:30.2	turned my phone on and there was a text from my boy Billy Row, which is one of my oldest friends,

2:32.6	likely with a guest vocalist. More information regarding these schedules shows to come.
2:40.2	Likely with a guest vocalist. So immediately, I'm just like, what is this is insane? First of all,
2:49.3	if you're and I talked about this all last night, we're talking about 10 dates. Now, if you
