My friend 'Bret' and I were at a Decemberists concert in Lawrence KS a few years back. Colin Meloy was prepping the audience on how to react during The Mariner's Revenge song. They had a cardboard whale and they wanted the audience to scream as if being chewed to death by the whale. My friend, 'Bret' yelled out "WHALES DON'T HAVE TEETH."
That shut Colin Meloy right up, I'll tell you. And when the time came to sing the lyric, "I must have slipped between its teeth" Colin mumbled and glared at my friend.
It was amazing and to this day remains my favorite story about whales.
Killer whales have teeth...
Irronius!

It's no Happy When I'm Crying. But, yeah, it's cool.
I listened to HWIC today and liked it a lot better than I remembered but its still not as good.
Fair enough. At least you gave it a spin. You're alright, chewn. I don't care what theplatypus says.
Wait what?

There are about 65 different species of whales that have teeth. Not only is Joe's friend wrong, but he was a jerk that day too.

I love them all. I sure do spend enough time thinking and posting about them.
Do you think they read my posts and nod in silent agreement once in awhile?

I don't either. I'll probably watch a clip or two on YouTube and that will be it.

Sit-down acoustic sets to start the first encore are fucking boring.

it's surprising how many of the faithfull seem to idolize every b-side from 2005 onward yet the TOTD opus is brushed aside like it ain't no thang
maybe if there was a poster pre-sale and sticker set they would know the folly of their ways
