This is actually the second piece of mail the Studio received that was addressed to Urban Gaxiola. The first piece was something about feeding the hungry kids in some third world country. Jason had just recorded the music to a new song when the Studio received that first piece of mail, so why not use Urban Gaxiola as the title of the song? Jason actually thought Urban Gaxiola was Russian or some other language that meant "current resident." And that is where the chorus for that song came from: "I wish I knew what it meant..."
A couple of years later at church, the pastor was out of town so another pastor came in to lead that week's sermon. He introduced himself as... Urban Gaxiola! What a spiritual event for Jason! After the sermon Jason briefly talked with Urban and found out Urban used to live a block away from the Studio but had since moved. So the post office had delivered a couple of pieces of his mail to the Studio by accident. It was not mentioned that there was a song named after Urban.
So the above artifact remains in the Metal XOR Museum as a piece of history for one of Mune Mud's songs.

When does the museum open to the public?
Just before it opened to the public a few years ago, the plumbing didn't pass inspection. So the grand opening ceremony was postponed indefinitely. While trying to raise money to have the plumbing replaced, they added a north, south, east, and west wing, a basement, and an upper floor. So until they raise the money to replace the damaged 35' of pipe, it will remain closed.
At least the public can enjoy some of the museum's contents thru this blog.
