Interesting track ...
Has a familiar feel to it. Not sure why.

The guys all went to JMU and Julie went to Tech. It's the drummer's (Eddie) nickname. They're great to see live. Just saw them last weekend in Charlottesville. |

well stated, and very true. Difference of opinions make the horse races. |

Do songs ever get removed from an RP playlist for consistently low ratings? Just curious. For example, if they receive more than say ten ratings below 4. Don't mean this one per se,...but now that we're on the subject perhaps we could remove this from the R....? |

Bit too New Countryish and not enough alt in there for my tastes, and her voice doesn't lift it out of not really liking it all that much.

I went to see Eddie From Ohio several times around 1997, around the same time I saw Ani once. So I was listening to them at the same time. Maybe I'm dense, but it never occurred to me that Julie Murphy and Ani were similar. Still doesn't. Both energetic but different energies. Maybe you have to see them.

"Blast" is a stretch for what I saw and heard. They may keep their following from their hometown, but they've alientated a potential newcomer. Rating: 2 - I just dont get it.   Guess they should have played covers to keep from "alienating" the un-initiated. If you need bands you've never seen to play songs you know, go to a karaoke show. |
