Stewie: One out of two ain't bad. Funny thing is, I put together a CD of some of my favorite Timbuk 3 stuff, followed by several cuts from the first two BoDeans albums(which are the only two I really liked, too.) I thought that the music flowed fairly smoothly from one group to the other... not what I would have expected. I put the CD together for someone who outbid me on a CD of the First Insect Trust album (which I have on record.) I sent an e-mail to the guy, and he said that he was interested in hearing some more off-beat stuff, so I made the CD for him. Now, I could have sent him my favorite Bonzo Dog Doo Band cuts, but the kid has a rock band and I don't know if he'd appreciate them.

Ya never know.

As often happens, it seems like many bands peak at the beggining, and then lose sight of where they're going as soon as they get a little popularity.
