01 - Intro
- Eddie Kruger
02 - 23
- Dave Grega
03 - Slip to fall
- Mezzanine
04 - Lonely Again
- Simian-Think-Tank
05 - Fool

If you guys are on broadband there's no reason why you can't upload something lossless like a WAV or a FLAC. It's only one song, so it can't be that big. That's too big for email but you can use the ftp or a host like megaupload or rapidshare and give the link to whoever's sollecting them.

i like the "Hush that Noise" idea.

it's like a reference to the Hardcore fans like us, but still an amazing title.

I vote for Hush That Noise: A Tribute To God Lives Underwater as the title.

I have been talking with Randy and we are going to go ahead and make the book and the tribute cd a package deal when the book gets released in October.

My band is also going to record a song for the cd when we go in the studio next month to record our album (we are just gonna add it into the recording time)

We will have our song picked this week at practice and I will let Randy know what song we will be covering ASAP.

the new version of my FYM cover is just about done. it is much gentler than my earlier attempt. much closer to the original. if you have not blocked it out of your memory yet, it was very brash and mean. not so much now.

okay, so in recording my cover, i 4 tracked the song differently just to try to keep my flow, and i ended up recording a version that i like much better.

it's a slow, mainly acoustic version of fym, and it has some of that beautiful tape sound (4 trackers know what i mean) really ambient and gentle. so, that is what i am going with. i will upload it soon and send it to Bobbo.
