Hey Ben,
what can I say buddy? Thank you so much for having us over and showing us around your beautiful country. It was the absolute pinnacle of my musical career. That is of course until we come back. I'm already going through musical withdrawl.
You have completely changed our band forever, and I can't thank you enough. I hope your gig went well last night. I wish I could have seen you guys play, so we'll have to set something like that up for next time. Anyway, keep in touch. And hopefully we can also set up a US east cost tour with BBE and some others.
talk to you soon.
Cheers,
Jonny [Bass player - Kalvin Koolidge]

what's up Benny!
Just got back from Jersey with BBE. crazy night.
gGreat show, great after party. We were kicked out of our hotel around 7am for breaking into other rooms via jumping from balcony to balcony and getting in the back door. We would have been cool but Conner decided to attack Austin which caused quite a ruccus. the cops came, we ended up bribing our way out of it by paying the hotel $225.00.
Then we all slept at this girls house and had a BBQ later in the day. Those guys really know how to have a good time.
Anyway just wanted to check in. Hope all is going well out there. I've been looking into clubs we'd like to play for our next trip, and also want to get started on putting together that US east coast CMEAS tour. Can't wait to see you in august. Talk to you soon bud.
Jonny

Dearest Ben,
I don't know where to start, but thanks so much for everything. You've given us all the time of our lives. I'm sad that we didn't get the chance for a proper goodbye. I'm no good at goodbyes anyway. We'll just have to pick up where we left off when next we meet. You've been successful at linking us and KK together. They'll be joining us on stage in a week or two in our home town. And they've invited us to play at one of their shows in NYC on the 25th of Nov. Which is great. I know that linking musicians from around the world, is part of CMEAS's mission statement, so it should make you happy to know that you've done what you've set out to do.
Thanks so much again and please be as frequently in touch as you possibly can.
Cheers!
Love, Your Friend for life,
Ernie [lead singer - Big Baby Ernie]
Uh yeah, I think that's how it happened.
It's starting to come back to me now. I remember something about food and cops and clumps of hair being ripped out of poor Austin's head. Klavin Koolidge kicked ass at McIntyre's Pub...for a minute there I thought I was back in the UK.
And we washed it all down with a Massive Pants Party. If only Ben were there in his obscenely tight gray underwear.

Cheers Ben, Thanks again for the tour. I also would like to team up with you for a tour bus race in the Dakar Rally.
I think you have the best chance of winning. I'll be your co-piolet.
love ya mate, Bryan "Schmoezie" Brosen |
