Clever. Music on the cheap. Considering some of Neil Young's films, he would appreciate that.

Any reference points to discribe the band?
Phish cross with The Dead crossed with U2? Is that close?
VertigoGal said:you were serious about dragging the Church thread up werent you?
I still havent got the Church cd (or any cd for that matter). I'm doing crew it turns out, and I have to pay for most of it, so that's eating into my cd buying budget unfortunately.

VertigoGal said:that would be awesome but I don't think I could give out my address. it would be very difficult explaining that one to my parents.

don't worry about it if you have a slow connection, seriously, I have the same problem, takes forever to upload.
if you ever want to send a song, swimmerchikpdq@mail.com is my email (well, my music downloading,forum registering email )

Yeah, I thought it was a pretty good idea. I need to dig up some Neil Young songs...between a couple of posts here and the NY appreciation thread I feel the need.

I'm actually looking forward to hearing your band. You do get a cut right? Out of everybody you convince to buy an album. You make a good PR manager.
Ordered Under the Milky Way too. Having made a payment on my mastercard, I'm feeling righteous and greedy again. Besides I should hear their stuff, right?
reptile said:Hey they are playing The Church on my local station
Sounds like a cover.......
an old Monkies song?
indra said:Yeah, they do The Porpoise Song!
It sounds embarrassing when you say it ("Oooh, they're covering a Monkees song!" ), but it's really a pretty cool little song.
It's on the Box of Birds cd. All covers.

BonosSaint said:Oh, hell. I'm enjoying hearing about the band and I've never heard one of their songs yet. There's something compelling about someone being passionate about something. Actually, all this discussion is going to help me when I get the CDs. I love background, context.
Hey, its not a put-down, The Monkees where cool and some of those songs are actually classics in my book.indra said:

A lot of that period of the 60's is seen as throw-away and lightweight, but just listen to the tunes! Bands would kill for tunes like that these days......we could certainly do with more of it on the radio.....

My mom's a big Monkees fan. I've heard the original version of that song and actually don't mind it-remember my mom playing it a lot when I was little.
I'll have to track this down, so she can hear that cover . Plus, I'd be interested to hear their other covers, too.

Moonlit_Angel said:Hehe, cute pics of him as a kid . I like seeing musicians when they're children, I don't know why-guess 'cause it's interesting to see them go from that to what they are now or something .
The teenaged one's nice, too.

Mike Nesmith was my fave, he went on to write some pretty cool songs on his own, very funny guy.indra said:
Oh, I loved The Monkees! I used to watch the show all the time. I was completely smitten.
