Not bad...to be honest, it´s the first record I´d call music really... I do like it. Those drums are computer made? Anyway, better percussion track would sure add a lot. Nevertheless, it´s nice :-)

Comin along nicely,Oirish. I like the banjo. Go easy on the vocal chords. They have to last for an hour and a half. That's before the encores.

Well done, Oirish. Like it a lot.
Like Noel said, take care of the old chords.

oi'll try to save em' voical choirds a boit moire :wink:

oi guess, when oi push the perfoirmance, oi oiften doin't pay too much attention to oit.. oi remember when oi perfoirmed loive, noit beeoin' easy oin the voical choirds moixed woith smoikoin' and droinkoin' oin stage.. after an hoiur me voice soiunded loike soimeoine's been scrubboin' the walls woith me throiat ;

is it hard to produce uhh...this kind of sound? no no uhhh... people got the uhh... have a misapprehension that the band can't play...the band can play really well...the sound's changed because Costello came in and produced it right? and the way he produces is like really kind of clinical and kind of like you know? the best way to record us is live you know in the studio with as few takes as possible on the vocal... but Costello believed in hundreds of takes making me do the vocal hundreds of times and then kind of splitting it up from bits of all that to make up a Frankenstein monster... yes a word out here and a word out there. . . you know? he'd drop in between uhh... you know?despite the fiddles uhh. . . like Frankenstein productions like you know? the raw energy comes through you know what I mean? it's a great album because it's great fucking music it's a great band you know what I mean? it's great music you know what I mean? and it wasn't all written by me you know what I mean? i mean half was written by me... yeah?and like... you know... it's a great band in the peak of their... of their... of their of their uhh... of their uhh...they're in their peak

George W. has always been very articulate. Or wait - Is that Palin?

Dear God, there appears to be no end to that woman. Just when we thought the American people had sent her back to Saspirilla, Alaska with a flea in her ear, we have to contend with stories of Palin entertaining campaign bods in her hotel room, dressed only in a towel, consulting her back garden view to see if she could see Africa from there...................get this woman off the stage now! She was not a clever idea as a candidate and she's even worse as a "celebrity". Can't she be impeached or something?

Fine, so feel "almost insulted", hurt for a few seconds, and get on with your life. She doesn't piss me off and if she pisses you off, I respectfully submit that is not Palin's fault, but your own.
We all know her way of acting is a problem for you, we all know that you do not share her views. But one thing is clear. She is not going to change her mode of expression to please you, so get over it! Don't watch her! :wink:

And again, Macrua attempts a new artform from addressing the unsaid. I do not feel "almost insulted" by Mrs Palin, nor do I feel hurt by her, she does not piss me off, her "way of acting" is not a problem for me, nor have I ever expected or asked her to "change her mode of expression" in order to please me. In fact, as my post made quite clear, I see in Caribou Barbie one enormous source of derision and comedy. So should you. In the meantime, if you cannot stop yourself from jumping into the fray with whichever Medusan happens to be fogging up your glasses this week, I suggest you take a long rest. If you cannot even moderate your own posts, you are hardly in a position to moderate the comments of others.

I know Sarah is more than capable of standing up to your bullying of her, but I personally am not. I find it deeply uncomfortable and upsetting and I know I am not the only one. I find it incredible that guitarist of a band whose frontman is the very definition of the maverick, the individual, the engagingly eccentric, the unique, the ornery and the stubborn, should behave so appallingly towards one who also exhibits some of these characteristics. :lol:
