did they do anything new or good? My computer crapped out while trying to submit the long answer to your question. I hate when that happens... One of many highlights: Off the new album there's a song called Top Of the World and it was written by Patty Griffin who I had never heard of. The song is written from the perspective of a man who had died. A string section backed up the lead singer who sort of goes into a trance while singing it. Almost like she was possessed by the song. Pretty cool. Here are the lyrics to Top Of The World: I wished I was smarter Wished I was stronger I wished I loved Jesus The way the my wife does I wished it'd been easier Instead of any longer I wished I could've stood Where you would've been proud That won't happen now That won't happen now There's a whole lot of sinners That ain't gonna be heard Disppearing every day Without so much as a word Somehow I'm afraid I broke the wings Off that little songbird And she's never gonna fly To the top of the world How To the top of the world I don't have to answer Any of these questions Don't have no guide to Teach me no lessons I come home in the evening Sit in my chair One night they called me for supper But I never got up I stayed right there In my chair There's a whole lot of singing That ain't gonna be heard Disappearing every day Without so much as a word Somehow I think I broke the wings Off a little songbird And she's never gonna fly To the top of the world How To the top of the world I wished I'd had known you Wished I had shown you All of the things I Was all these are But I'd pretend to be sleeping When you'd come in in the morning To whisper goodbye Go work at the rain I don't know why Don't know why Cause everyone's singing We just wanna be heard Disappearing every day Without so much as a word So how? Gonna grab a hold Of that little songbird And take her for a ride To the top of the world Right now To the top of the world ---- Anyhow, the band sounded good. I attempted to record it using that ATI wonder card. I (it) screwed up and chopped up the 1st two songs. Otherwise I have the remaining 50 minutes in a 468 meg MPG file. Any ideas on how to lend/send it to you? Any suggestions on how to edit that down into the individual songs and cut out the commercials? -ChickDigger
