He must be singularly free from vanity, and is generally found to be an enthusiast who has the art to conceal his enthusiasm.
Philip James Bailey

You listeners, the ones who found me first are, I believe, the future of great art thinkers. Because anyone that's found me now I really think is grabbing on to the ideas that I have, more than anything. It's about the music but it's also about the story. So thank you guys for loving and reading the story and being as into it and as passionate as I am.
