If not God, I like the idea that it's some really fucked up and depressed religious leader who is disillusioned by what he's having to teach and has taken to the booze.

Apparently that intro is Stone. I thought it was Mike, too.

So I guess thematically this one echoes STBC.
I'm just reading the lyrics for the first time.

The bridge in this one is so tasty

I'm pretty sure Stone is playing the riff in that video from Pittsburgh, which would lead me to assume he's doing it on record, as well.

A nice fun little track. Not the best PJ song I've heard, but not the worst either. 3 stars.

When it leaked, it was one of my favorite leaked tracks (if not the favorite), and still is one of my favorite tracks on the album.

If they took care of the lyrics a little...but, it's a Stone Gossard's song.
