Just two optimistic nihilists from Cleveland sharing a good laugh and conversation here in Mesa. John came here for a pinball tournament and he is also making a book of all the flyers that were made for Speak In Tongues. He gave me a preview (it’s not done yet) and shared his thoughts on how he and Ron Kretch are doing the layout. I’m super excited to see it when it’s completed! I hope you are excited too!
