Can't wait to check them out (for my 1st time) in Atlanta.

In a couple of months we'll have 11/11/11 and 12/12/12 next year, and that will about do it for this century. Oh, I guess we can hang on 10/11/12 or 11/12/13, but they're not as much fun as the perfect—tho' entirely fabricated—confluences of our penchant for counting things and marking the passage of time.

 
Now that we're digressing completely from the topic here (Little Pieces), I read that 11/11/11 was a special "corduroy day" for a group that celebrates all the dates with ones in them. (No kidding.) You can imagine they must have been orgasmic last November 11th!

Normally, I quite enjoy reading your comments. However, the above-cited post has me quite flummoxed. What the freakin' hell does the date have to do with anything?

You have nine thumbs? Interesting concept. I bet you can hitch a lift better than most.

Singer's voice is excellent and these guys have a lot of great songs. I've been listening to them for about 6 years, all thanks to hearing them on RP.

I really like these guys. I like the singers voice.
Don't know quite what it is.
Seems very genuine,very different without seeming affected.

Totally agree, although this song grabs me first time listening...  {#Bananajam}

OK song....but this band just hasn't put out anything as great as their "In Our Gun" album....which was incredible.  Since then they have just been mediocre songs packaged in somewhat poppy formats.  I miss the old Gomez.

I like what I've heard from these guys, though I hadn't heard much about them other than their band name, (which made me think of John Astin on the Addams Family) until I listened in here.  Well, that's part of the reason I tune in at RP, to hear different stuff.

Im just so glad to hear something else off this album other than that damned 'Airstream Driver'. {#Headache}
