Tom,
I had a better time recording at your studio then I did at Electric Lady Land or Record Plant!
Thanks again and keep Rockin, Rivets

Tom B was so beyond helpful in all of this and we are completely indebted to him and his wife Nancy for opening their home to complete (mind you punk) strangers with open arms. Not to mention that the studio itself is awesome!
