Well, I hope everyone got to hear at least a few of the tracks up on my
page, because they're gone now.

I didn't just remove the links, they've been nuked off the server, so
don't waste your time trying to find them.  I really don't want to get
sued, and apparently I've "offended" Sean and Rob.

Well, this is what you get.

are both personally extremely offended.
