I had to look and see who it was — I was thinking an acoustical Foo Fighters, granted the voice is off, but not by much... Very nice.

It's a little too upbeat and peppy. The hardcore drum beats and thrash guitar licks will haunt me forever.

There's a great restaurant in Leland called The Bluebird, I cant go up north without stopping in. Cant say as I have ever heard music this good there, but it is still a nice place.

I really like this. It is about style and mood, to me. And simplicity. It creates a feeling and my heart responds. :) |

I like this very much. It reminds me of some of the most recent stuff from THe Blue Nile. 8

Couldn't agree more ... Though, not just American. Travellers, " tales of longing, of hardship, and of strange characters" have no nationality. Their territories are roads, anywhere, everywhere. This takes me elsewhere, listening to a story, building up a small personal movie with his voice and the words and the music. |

Some say depressing. Some say uninspiring. Some say not their best song.
