MYM, then Betterman (live)

Now I'm excited.

What are the odds on a song on the album about Dennis Flemion?

What are the odds on a song on the album about Dennis Flemion?

Oh oh Where's the sponge?
To soak up this deadly lake
To shamwow away his fate
To rise up from the waaakee
......sigh

[harmless]

I used to think PJ's #8s were always the best song on the album. What was #8 on S/T and Backspacer? It's LB on this; better be good.

[stip]

big wave and supersonic, so your theory holds!

[harmless]

Really?

[Sgt. Crackpot]

Yeah, guys...there's pretty much no way on earth the reaction to something on a message board is going to affect this band's decisions.

This, mother fuckers. If we starting thinking delusional thoughts like this, then we are no better than the asshat monkeys over in the pit that think they should be part of an official PJ decision making committee.

We are not entitled. We are not special. We are nothing.

I've got more chance of experiencing spontaneously combustion, than a member of PJ giving a shit about my thoughts, let alone reading this post.

any rumblings out there about a possible late night TV appearance to promote this thing?

they need to get back to letterman.

I've always loved the pre-album Letterman appearances. They usually played something new off the album, rather than a launch single. Let's hope this happens soon.

While waiting for this to leak, I've rediscovered Whale Song.

Man, what a great song.

Yes it is

No rumblings but i'd be shocked if they don't squeeze in a Letterman appearance either right before the tour starts or around the Brooklyn dates.

Ah yes, good point. That's happened in the past but as long as I don't overdo the bootlegs (where there are too many recurring songs) I should be ok... Also, I happen to be going through a massive Neil Young kick on the side, which helps keep the PJ fresh.
