A HUGE thanks to you, dear Rose, we finally did it. Here's to this one, here's to the next one. I'm getting massive compliments from my friends on your vocals, as I knew I would.

Looking forward to commenting on your other output after I do a few things outside the context of a studio for a few days!

So the general idea that I've been playing around with: the main character watches someone turn into a zombie, runs away, and ends up finding a group of "second-stage infected" zombies that are basically out to help save humanity from the regular zombies... and the regular zombies are led by the one that transformed in the beginning who I guess has some sort of maniacal urge to take over the world. And in terms of how I'm actually doing it I guess I'll just call it indie-folk-rock opera or something? Pretty much mostly me playing guitar and singing. Most of the songs I wrote for FAWM I either wrote or rewrote to vaguely fit into this context, but I'm not really sure how to fill it out.

Well that forgiveness makes me ALMOST feel bad for editing my comment to say "Noo Zulland".

ALLLOOO!! Rose.

Well, I think it's different for every person, sadly. In the past, it's around 7 or 8pm, EST.

Rose... since you told me I had to do FAWM (slight exaggeration), y no tengo instrumentos aqui en mi piso, I believe that means you will have to take responsibility for the melody of a set of lyrics.

Your powers of persuasion may have brought me here, but I have a secret weapon - an addiction to songwriting!

I'm a lovely person!

Did you know, we haven't had a unique collaboration since 'Welcome to the Future'? That was three years ago. Three years! That's as many as three ones. And that's terrible.
