It has been a while since I have really gotten excited for a record release. In fact when I was asked to make a list of my favorite records of 2008, I put Against Me! at the top of that list even though New Wave came out in 2007.

So here is starts my moaning about the weather... ok today isn't all that bad, it's just that I know I have a couple of months of sweat ahead of me, constant brow wiping, consumption of water and these days I can also look forward to a couple of months of constant explaining the reality of vomit inducing headaches caused by Air Conditioning Units along with their faint chemical smell is poiso...
