i think it's almost everyones, it's the best piece of writing that he's done in that time era

Yeah so, matt just starts recording like... today or something. Then Taylor says expect the new cd, new website, and documentary late winter/early spring. And OLP went into the studio... what 2 months ago? And we get their cd probably later than Matt's. And the worst part of it is, I can almost guarantee me liking matt's over OLP's.

100$ is a lot for a shirt... I know it's for a good cause, but still...

The thing is Matt doesn't care about strategically releasing the album at the right time. The reason OLP's album is coming out later is probably due to what else is being released in the first quarter of 2004. Also Raine and Chantal are expecting a kid at the beginning of the new year, so obviously Raine doesn't want to be touring to promote an album when he has a newborn at home.

Just so I can find something to complain about...I wish he had released another video from Avalanche It would of been awesome. Oh well, what am I complaining about...now I get more music sooner...

but what video would he have done?

He released the two best singles from the cd he could...

Although, I suppose Lullaby wouldn't have been bad.

please tell me these got ripped

please tell me i can also get them if they're ripped

there are rips of some shows. I know that the St Catharines Ontario show from July 16th (roughly) was in mp3 format and it had 3 new songs. I'm pretty sure they were Little Terror, X-Pats, and North American for life. The songs are very good.

i know what it means 'you got me'
we're not sick we just need it for the weekends
on mondays it's gone
i used to think i was invisible beside you'd crumble
you wait for it and you wait for it and it's gone
and you wake up and nobody knows
that i've loved you buried alive


if someone tells me these aren't brilliant lyrics... i'll shoot you

i also have the ottawa show which has xpats,little terror,its been a while and blue skies, its a better bootleg than the st catheranes one and i have empty roads as well from a vancouver show

As you may or may not know, Colonel Pork Pie is shooting a documentary of the making of the record. He likes to watch a great deal of television and play about on the studio computer equipment when he should be filming the All-Star Band Stand Ramblers. That is, when he's not cutting class to go and film The Payolas.

Details then.

The record is a double album worth of material and follows a storyline. I'm not going to give away what the story is about, but I will say that there are 22 songs in total.

The instrumentation of the record is quite elaborate. While I perform mostly acoustic guitar and vocals, I have written parts for a Baroque quartet (which is excellent because of the sound of cat gut strings as opposed to metal strings) and a small choir that has been extremely fun to work with. There are also some other interesting elements as well that I won't give away at present.

I have been thinking of performing the new record in smaller venues, perhaps school gyms, having the audience sit in a circle around the players who will do everything without the use of amplification. I believe that fine Icelandic band Sugar Bear something did performances quite similar.

Being that this is my day off, I'm going to the movies. Merry Christmas Metro Goers!

Matthew Good.
All-Star Band Stand Ramblers.
