It's hilarious. I was hoping it'd make Live Noise....A few people have hinted at the list of Songs I'd Like To See Again & this would no question be at the top of my list (of course, the problem with that list is it would go thusly: 1) Your New Boyfriend long version 2) The rest of them).

(Of course, this was before I learned how much to > believe anything that band members say.) Well that wasn't exactly a lie. They didn't do Lazy Boy for years after the Bargainville tour, despite constant prodding from everyone. (I think I started prodding on my 3rd show). They used excuses like "we're not good enough singers. That song is just too hard" (Yeah Right!) ;) When they finally brought it back last year I think it was partly just to surprise (and delight) us. (Notice that Fell in Love came back at the same time). However I have a feeling that they may still be self- consious about Lazy Boy, so I want to take this opportunity to say that I think--all bulshit aside--that Lazy Boy sounds great in concert, and that they should have no fear of rotating it in on occasion.

I thought it was about a guy who works on the assembly line who has aspirations of dating a white collar woman. Kind of like Billy Joel's uptown girl.

(its under lyrics from the top page) There is no way of easilly telling whether not its a cover or not, but if you have their albums you can quickly point out tunes that haven't been released.

I've been doing a lot of thinking about live albums and what they should sound like since Severe Tire Damage came out. On one hand, you want the recording to sound good. you don't want excessive crowd noise, because then your album will sound like a bad bootleg, and you want it to be fairly well recorded and mixed, while still maintaining as much of the feel of the live performance as possible. on the other hand, you don't want a live album to sound sterile, as if it wasn't really live at all. I think a lot of the problem with Severe Tire Damage is that it was hyped up (by the band, even) as being "a live album with a couple of new studio tracks". at the Hatch Shell concert in Boston, just a week or week and a half before the release date, Flansburgh repeatedly said "live album", and made no reference at all (to my recollection) to studio tracks. the problem with that is that it's NOT a live album. there are live tracks, but it's not a live _album_. anyway, I was digging around in my CD collection this morning and found my copy of the Spin Doctors' live album _Homebelly Groove_. it's a _really_ good live album! the songs are not just reiterated from the studio recordings, they're expanded, improved upon, changed up a little bit. there's all kinds of great between-song banter and playing the audience. the songs all flow together nicely, despite being recorded at three different shows, so you get the feeling that you're at a live performance, or at least listening to a continuous recording of one show. the only time during the album that breaks from this is the last track, which was recorded live in a studio somewhere, but even still, it's got this endearing little spoken song introduction thing that makes it still feel live. you know, the way a live album should be. :tape - -- duct tape boy (dtb@class.uml.edu) WJUL : http://www.uml.edu/misc/WJUL/ "someday somebody else besides me will call me by my stage name." - TMBG ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 27 Aug 1998 20:34:11 GMT From: cricket5@hotmail.com Subject: Re: Songs never heard wish list In article <1998082716490400.MAA05566@ladder03.news.aol.com>, dgodwin1@aol.com (DGodwin1) wrote: > >6.

Those of you who only caught part of it in Toronto were gypped because the last verse or so includes a rather climactic ending. I'd *LOVE* to hear this one again.
