i found this in a pile of old photographs i was scanning. i have no idea why, but i'm pretty sure it was taken on the botch/dep/jesuit tour.

yup my old band played with you guys 3 times..in reading pa (with the mighty jeromes dream at alexander t's house), baltimore md (nate newton got really pissed cos no one was there and said next time they were gonna tour with count me out), and washington dc (there were 7 bands on that show).
somebody told me this awhile back and i was severely embarassed about not remembering you.

no sweat, i wouldn't have remembered either if i hadn't come across the pic. besides, i'm socially retarded, so we may have never even met. who knows? but i do remember those shows now that you mention them. the one in maryland was so awful. it was atrociously (is that a word?) hot and we had to carry gear up two huge flights of stairs to play in front of about 7 kids. and, damn, alexander t's house. wow.

I can't believe it took me until 2004 to meet Forbes in person after knowing him online since like '96 or so.
