Loved it when I saw the show live, but it was only untill a year prior to the preformance that I started and band and got "into", music. Never-the-less, great music, intresting people, and a real eye opener to the music "scene", which, I have come to find out, is smaller than anyone can imagine. May I ask is by circumstance that you knew Robert before hand, or are you native to New England?

@theaudiomason I met Robert that day. The show was filmed for Cartoon Network. I've gotten to play several more shows with him since. He's a great guy! I'll be playing in Camden NJ in September, if you're in the area Thanks!
