Would somebody be able to PM me this track, or give me the details to the Gmail account? Thank you. In exchange, I'll give you the extended cut of Punch 'n' Judy

It's probably the wrong time to mention it, but at the listening party, didn't BOB apologise for 'ruining' a song for a joke? I wish I'd been there; I'd have said 'Well, that's fine I guess, we're used to it by now.'

That was Getaway. He used the original version in the EPK. Then went back and put a little fixin' on it. That will be another rare gem that surface some day.

Oh man, this will surely be one of those demos that everyone loves way more than the original. That was really nice.

While you are all in demo land... I noticed on PJ.com that they removed the MYM banner...

Why else would they do that unless they were making some room to announce the 2nd single :shock:

i think it's only Ed's isolated guitar/vocals from the Wrigley show. definitely not a proper studio recording, not even a demo IMO. still better without the fucking sissy keyboards.

It's pretty nice, but a patchy performance. I'm not dreading the studio version anyway since the arrangement doesn't sound too bad (real piano apparently).
