Yo,

Just saw you in Minneapolis at the Cedar a few weeks back and you all straight killed it, as usual, especially your piano player I mean god damn. I just wanted to say that your guitar playing has been a huge influence on me. "The General" was the first song I learned how to play on guitar way back when, and I still play it almost every time I pick up the guitar. In fact, I've learned as many Dispatch and State radio songs as I've been able to figure out. My favorite of all time to play is definitely "Revolutionaries" off the Wicker Plane EP. ALSO RX Bandits is basically my favorite band ever and similarly, Embree and Choi's guitar playing have been a huge influence on me. When I saw you + Embree in Madison, WI, and discovered you guys played together a bunch of times I was stoked, It was like my two musical worlds (since you both have so many projects goin' on) coming together. So I have three questions:

How did you and Matt Embree come to be buds?

Who are some of your favorite guitar players?

Do you have any advice or experience to share for someone who's trying to hop a train from Minnesota to the Southern US?
