I'll be a no-show at tomorrow. I'm choosing to skip out on the guys in favor of spending time with friends and family (people I haven't seen for 6 months to a year).

From the way the record industry works I'd estimate he's made about $47 on album sales (want to make very little money for lots of hard work, kids? Sign ...
