as you guys all know we’ve been beyond excited for today to come and normally this would be a day of celebration with the release of our new album. in light of the events in Boston yesterday we’d like to send our thoughts and prayers to the victims and everyone affected. we’ll be donating the proceeds from our upcoming boston show from the fall tour at Tsongas arena to the victims. hopefully these songs will make some people feel better today.

have you ever liked one of your friends so much that when you see his name on your cellphone your heart feels like it drops to your stomach. i swear, i think it’s probably one of the best feelings in the world. when you feel nervous,giddy, and you can’t wait to see what he has to say. it’s a feeling that is unreal. you feel like your heart is gonna jump out of your chest. your heart just starts racing so fast, i wonder if i’m falling to fast i’m scared but excited at the same time. i love this feeling that i have and i’m hoping that he feels a little bit of how i feel. the best feeling is the more we talk to one another we are growing closer together and this makes me really happy.
