Then Mike Hsu and I sat down with Sully from Godsmack, and we spent some time walking down memory lane. Somehow maxi pads, and Cindy Crawfords eye cream came up in the conversation. Finally, Mike Hsu disappeared, and Mike & Ryan from Red Sun Rising joined me to spoli a bottle of wine, and take Boston accent lessons. It was an amazing night.
