Jefff-
I seriously love this. It’s great. at first i was suspicious of the “la la la”, but I ended up loving it and pestering at least 3 friends online with it. Keep up the good work! I can’t wait to buy the new album.

So what is playing the synth parts? What gadget do you cart around and how are you plugging it into the PA or whatever? *preparing to steal ideas*

we practiced the same 14 song set probably twenty times before our first show, and we still practice it. sometimes we swap out songs, but i think it’s important to have a core of music that you can rock the ass off of when there are no monitors and someone has a stomach ache and you’re shit drunk. people seem to like hearing song they’ve heard before, too.

JB – I just brought a CD with me and gave it to the guy running the boards. I would’ve preferred to plug in my discman so I’d have start/stop control, but I didn’t want to make too big a deal. If I were to make a habit of this, I’d really like to just have an mp3 cd (or ipod) with all my backing tracks on it. But anyway, there’s no special gadget playing the synth, it’s just my regular synth recorded. There’s no reason I couldn’t throw on some real instruments and backup vocals. But I want to make a clear distinction for the audience of what’s live and what’s a recording, so they can focus on my performance.
