Absolute Fucking Shock
Received this in my inbox today, and am in absolute fucking shock:
Hi,
I’m from Second Nature Recordings, the label that puts out Rocky Votolato’s
albums (to which you referred on in a blog). Why don’t you send us something?

So yeeeeah, I can’t help but be completely nervous, excited, and even paranoid that it’s a hoax all at once. Mostly because my luck just doesn’t hold out that well, so knowing that, they’ll probably think I suck 
But I am going to spend the next few days preparing some music (hopefully getting my mic to work again) and sending off some samples. I’d actually like to incorporate a djembe in a few of my pieces and see how that would turn out. I know Godsmack’s latest song has some tribal drumming in it and it sounds very sweet. My friend Clay and I were goofing off a few weeks back with my guitar and Djembe and it really does have a unique sound to it.
Wow, just….wow.
When you get news like this, you just can’t help but have high hopes.
On another note, I retrieved a picture of my cousin at her wedding which you can view here. She really does look happy 
I just hope it lasts..

Yay! I’ve said it before, but I’ll say it again, both Morgan and I have been impressed by the recording you posted. Very, very best of luck to you. Hey, have you heard of Acid Pro? It’s an excellent soundmixing program. Morgan’s been using it and I’m very, very impressed.
