hamilton Posted June 14, 2006 Report Share Posted June 14, 2006 I just finished reading "Chronicles" (don't know why it took me so long to finally pick it up) and was wondering how much longer we'd have to wait for a new album. Question answered! Thanks for the heads-up; I'm looking forward to this! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
