  1. I've only given it one spin so far, but it went down pretty good I must say. It's a solid blast of catchy power pop, perfect soundtrack to a sunny day like today.

    Thanks. Gonna go get it.

     

    Umm how is the Jim Guthrie? I'm less inclined to like his stuff, meaning it's ok and all, but I'm too far into the Aaron Ritchies side of things.

    Story's Long, Story's Old - Nick Ferrio and His Feelings

     

    This story’s long, this story’s old
    This story is better left untold
    Some might say, let this story fade away
    To the grave, where the story ends
    Twists and turns, foes and friends
    With no amends just odds and ends
    Left untied

    The night she died or disappeared
    Drinks were drank, drinks were cheered
    No one knew something that bad
    Could happen here

    A fight broke out, a lover’s quarrel
    But for him and her that was normal
    They went separate ways
    He went south, She went north:
    She never returned

    And now she’s gone, Long gone
    And he’s singing his haunted songs
    About her ghost, and I hope
    Time can forgive his troubled mind
    Some time, some time

    The cops attempted to make contact
    With the driver of a Pontiac
    Word came down after a couple of days
    He’d been found

    Twine was tied above a wooden chair
    An awful stench hung in the air
    A swaying creak echoed loud and proud
    For anyone to hear

    Maybe she lived and ran away
    Got a job and changed her name
    But that’s all the same
    It’s neither here and neither there

    A fight broke out, a lover’s quarrel
    But for him and her that was normal
    They went separate ways
    He went south, She went north:
    She never returned

    And now she’s gone, Long gone
    And he’s singing his haunted songs
    About her ghost, and I hope
    Time can forgive his troubled mind
    Some time, some time

    Ghost Shirt - Meds

     

    I believe in medicine and lucky charms and darkness you can't see
    Movement of her hips against the scene
    Vacuuming the neighbor's house
    The kids downstairs are watching their TV
    Bedroom bottles lining up for me

     

    Into the city
    Into the lights and the glow
    I'm waiting for something
    Waiting for you I don't know
    I don't know
    Small days and big nights won't let me go

     

    Her lashes bat out 3/4ths time
    A funeral procession for the blind
    all telephones all quite at this time
    Sick of waiting round the dial
    Want to kiss you
    Want to start a fight
    Watch the pages scatter through the night

     

    Into the city
    Into the lights and the glow
    I'm waiting for something
    Waiting for you
    I don't know
    Small days and big nights won't let me go

  4. Oh that was fun. Only a short set with Chicken Bill and Time Forgot the highlights.

     

    Talked a lot to Aaron the pedal steel player and Ian Romano who was working merch. I didn't quite understand how important these two guys are to the whole process with Ian being the producing mastermind behind the records and also doing the Nick Ferrio LP.

     

    Also talked to Spencer Burton from Romano's old band Attack in Black. Gonna try to get a booking for Burton.

  5. I'm still soaking it in, but I am enjoying it.  I am a big fan of the other 3 records as well.  Between Romano & Ferrio, there's some great country music coming out of Canada these days.

     

    So true. Don't know what it is - something in the water, but that Ferrio Album is just exquisite. Turns out he is some school friend of my daughter and I had no idea until the facebook birthday wishes were exchanged.
