The Baseball Project- Peter Buck, Steve Wynn

[U2jer]

Thought I'd pass this along as there's quite a few R.E.M. fans around here- Peter Buck, Scott McCaughey with Steve Wynn and Linda Pitmon (she drummed on Steve Wynn's three Miracle 3 albums) recorded an album with songs about baseball, it's due out in early July. There's a link to a demo, really good stuff...

I'm interested in anything Peter Buck does However, songs about baseball??? I wouldn't have said the Buckstar was a sporting kind of guy.....

Songs about baseball! I don't know why that cracks me up.

Peter Buck is in every other ragtag ensemble, I swear. The man gets around.

Lyrics a little out of left field? Musically I'm really excited about this, I love R.E.M., The Minus 5, and a lot Steve Wynn stuff

Baseball ?? Oh well, should be interesting to see what they rhyme with "Ambien"

Baseball + the guy who wrote the lead guitar lines in Sitting Still and So. Central Rain = Awesomeness overload!!!
