Squirtgun will follow up…
Hope you're well! I'm going to try to come up there early next week and get those Crankpin DATs. Does that work for you? If you'll be around, then I can get more specific on the day, but I'm thinking Monday evening right now.

"Last Wave Rockers," was on my stereo for a decent portion of High School. Thank you for being part of that.
