Time to cat and not mouse tour

Hey Watt,

Been a big fan for years. I think the first time I heard you was Brave Captain on some skate video in the late 1980's. I turned into a big fIREHOSE fan, and then got into the Minutemen. I still think Double Nickels is one of the best post-punk records ever made.

I saw you here in Richmond with Mascis (how's he doing after the wreck?), and I have to say seeing you sing TV Eye and I Wanna Be Your Dog was the high point of the show, along with the ten minute long version of Amma Ring.

So I was wondering, who is doing he spiel on the current tour, or is there any spiel at all? I plan on seeing you in Charlottesvillle, VA, and I'm definitely looking forward to it. I just hope some of the spiel (if any) comes out of Watt's mouth.

And BTW, I'll see if I can hook you up with a Cuban or two after the show.

Matt
