  1. This song is dreamy. It is a long song but I don't mind it at all. Like the river, it takes a lot of twists and turns. It's just beautiful. Also, Crystal River is in Florida so I get that picture in my mind too. Every sound in this song has the perfect touch....guitars, piano, bass, drums, Tom's voice...You would think there was nothing left to improve on or add but when they play it live, it comes off different everytime. They make a wonderful sound togther. I loved watching them play this live. It's an amazing experience I hope to get to see again.

    Word.


  2. Never baptized. We attended Church of Christ when I was a child. I do not attend church now, but if I were to start attending, it would definitely not be at Church of Christ. I attended several different churches with friends while growing up - Catholic, Baptist, Methodist, Episcopalian. Today I prefer a non-denominational church. Preferably high on a hill top where I can feel the sun and the wind and hear the birds sing. I do not like or trust organized religion.


  3. Well, we weren't in line exactly, but sorta. At ACL 2006, we waited eight hours for TPATH to come onstage - standing in the same spot, with no bathroom break, no food or water other than what we started with, braving the blistering Texas sun, humidity, and rain. Does that count?


  4. I picked up a copy of the album last week. It is growing on me rapidly. It definitely has some beautiful keyboard and guitar parts on it! I think this review from above sums it up nicely:

    The Miami Herald called the album "a must have," the Dallas Morning News described the disc as "the exhilarating sound of a mature man truly reconnecting with his younger, hungrier self,"...

    I'm looking forward to seeing him again, for the first time in many years, in October.


  5. 1. Describe where you grew up: In a central area of Houston officially known as 'Plainview' on the city plats. Halfway between River Oaks (rich & sophisticated) and The Montrose (hippies). I gravitated to The Montrose and the hippies, LOL. Lots of kids in the neighborhood. In the summertime, we stayed out long after dark playing kickball or kick the can in the intersection under the streetlight. And similar to what Kira said, during Christmas break, we would collect the disgarded Christmas trees and build forts with them.

    2. Do you wear any jewelry? Earrings (pierced ears), a watch, a necklace that has my zodiac sign of Cancer on it (kind of goofy and very old school, but a friend gave it to me when I was 14, it has sentimental value and darned if I don't still believe in that sunsign stuff to a certain degree), a silver ring given to me by my best friend in high school, a silver & copper ring my son gave me, and a gold ring with rubies that was my great-grandmother's and was handed down to me by my grandmother. After that, any variety of bracelets and necklaces depending on my mood.

    3. What do you have too much of? Extra weight; clothes that no longer fit; crap - I am a sentimental fool and save newspaper articles, magazines, posters, ticket stubs, hotel room keys, all of my grandmother's mementos and photographs.

    4. Who is a fool? See #3 above.

    5. What's your nickname? I don't really have one now. When I was very young, my grandmother called me Kay-Kay, and I have a cousin who still calls me that. And also when I was young, one of my aunt's friends called me 'Cupcake'. Ha, ha, ha. I HATED that!!! Actually, I guess Kay is my nickname, since my given name is Kathryn.

    Word!!!

    1. Not rebelled against those piano lessons my mother made me take

    2. Put forth more effort in high school.

    3. Moved my grandmother to Seven Acres instead of Happy Harbor.


  7. I was a "letter girl". We spelled out TULARE REDSKINS on our little outfits and shook our bootys. LOL

    Wonder if there's still such thing?

    Barb! My high school team was the Lamar Redskins!

    I was never a cheerleader and was not interested. Well... maybe for a few minutes after that first pep rally in 7th grade, but the thought passed quickly!


  8. ^ Hey, Kay! I gotta interrupt the game for a sec. Yesterday a friend of mine who also loves Steve, told me that in that movie "Forgetting Sarah Marshall" - one of the characters has a RUGBURNS poster in up on thier wall! Cool, huh?

    Okay, carry on....

    :003: Very cool! I will have to watch for that!

    Carry on again...
