My 2nd attempt at this one. Everything seems to be slowing down in my old age. This is after Starbucks too. Anyone caught speaking Esperanto Is thought crazy or headed for jail There's peace in the wilds of West Texas Where the sun and the sky prevail Take no notice of the rising waters Take no notice where the rivers run dry They'll be digging through the landfills To find evidence of our great demise There's a changing pattern before us And the past tells the story quite well By the time we make it to Barstow We'll be more than halfway to hell Waves of adverts that promise revival Trinket-ware that batters the brain The devil bought the keys to Branson Drives a backhoe and wears a gold chain Now we're living in the unnamed timeframe Bets in Reno are on the human race Woke up in another test market With a new headache filter in place There's a changing pattern before us And the past tells the story quite well By the time we make it to Barstow We'll be more than halfway to hell By the time we make it to Barstow We'll be more than halfway to hell. + Informações

From the CD Terroir Blues I will wat for you in the green, green spaces, Wearing our post-industrial faces. Side by side sit the trashpile twin, And the eleventh century center of the Misissippian, With the calender of the sun, A people undone. Ceremonial mounds in the backyards and towns, That's the way it runed out. A city built up on the other great mound torn down, That's the way it happened. A culture on the run, They vanished in the sun, The Mississippian. Forward and on we go, Building our mounds out of control, Full of our finest throw away things. The new Mississippians, Under a smog choked sun, Waiting to be undone.. + Informações

Two songs from "New Multitudes" featuring Jay Farrar, Will Johnson, Anders Park, and Yim Yames. The songs are "Talking Empty Bed Blues" and "Chorine My Sheba Queen." The second song starts at just about 4:30. The video was recorded using my Samsung Galaxy S2, and the audio was recorded using CA-14's Cardiod microphones into a Church ST-9100 preamp and an Edirol R09-HR. These are the only songs for which I recorded video, but the entire set's audio was captured. Sorry for the haphazard job with syncing the two sources-- far from perfect, good enough to post, and that's all I wanted from it. The show was on March 12, 2012 at The Birchmere in Alexandria VA. + Informações
