Barbers have probably been closed for 6 weeks in Seattle. Give the guy a break!

Dr. Marvin Candle, Mark Wickmund, or Edgar Halliwax?
We still make records to be listened to — not that everyone will listen to a record track one to twelve in a row or side A or Side B — but we still make 'em in case somebody does want to listen to it like that, that's how we make em…

:arrow: Ed on Global Citizen + Gigaton =

I’d almost like to see if the tempos/mix match up enough to do a Betterman style split...use the first third of this performance, then go into the full studio cut.
Not because I don’t like the album version, but honestly just because why not. It’d be fun to see how the increased dynamic shift impacts it.

I loved that interview. He is so humble, such a fan, and it’s hilarious when he says that Stone asked what should go there and he thought, “what would Stone do?” and because he’s literally seen every show since 2009 he knows.

Yes! That 1:50-2:10 section is exactly what I imagined. Cool to hear, thank you!

It’s on demand for anyone with Sirius.

No chance Seven O’Clock happens without this dude.

Josh Evans is such a humble and laid-back guy on this deep dive...and, as an aside, yes, once again, you should all be listening to this album front to back...Not me telling you...That comes straight from the man himself.

Apologies, my friend...

Interesting tidbit: No backing tapes in rehearsal or on the road for the band, but, Josh was "playing a couple of little things off to the side of the stage."
Says he can't wait to hear Quick Escape blaring through a PA.
