This is an email I wrote to my family shortly after getting the new album - Full Bloom. They all like 311.
I bought the album, Full Bloom, earlier this year on preorder. I received it late October but didn’t really have time to sit and give it a full spin until driving home from the cabin about 4 weeks ago. I literally cried the entire trip home. Every song reminds me of Uncle (my brother). He would have loved this album no doubt about it. Try to enjoy some of these when get a moment and think of him please.
This one I’m dedicating to (my brother) :

Mountain Top
(my middle son) – this one reminds me of you because you just got married and were in Cancun – very Caribbeanish:
Full Bloom
Saint coined the term, I heard them say it somewhere back in the day. I'm a giga fan, literally had a shirt of P-nut's back and free tix to Red Rocks in 2012 from Abby. Blue Album is the Skronch embodied.
Thanks for sharing that. So Crunch + _____? = Skronch
Cool that you got that close to the band. My brother (RIP) was an even bigger than I. He has signed posters and set lists etc and was flying to shows and doing VIP etc.
