    The first song is a thing of beauty. I can't stop listening to it:

        I love it. "Laundry Room" is my favorite so far. I like the above version even a little more than the album one. We went and saw them in Augusta, Georgia last month, even took our 7-year-old daughter. It was one of the best concerts I've ever heard; the feeling was totally jubilant.

                  Laundry Room is serious contender for song of the year for me, though there are a few others. I'm still indebted to you for introducing me to these guys. Good stuff. Not exactly the same, but I find they are filling the void left when the Jayhawks broke up, for me.

                    I will add one word of criticism about this live version. Lots of bands get tired of playing their own songs and when you go listen to them live they improvise a melody or sing a different melody or do other things with it so as to keep it interesting. I don't play your song every day. Please keep the melody close to true. It is the thing I came to hear. Creative arrangements, however, if done well can be very nice.

                      UD, I put it on equal footing with REM's "Nightswimming" for conjuring up in my mind the sexual energy and angst of adolescence. This song is a work of art.

                        They are great. Listening to them feels like the first time I heard The Brian Jonestown Massacre...true musical genius

                          Ok. We don't get along sometimes. But, you have respectable taste in music, your brother is a decent chap, and your bairn photograph very well. That photo in your avatar is giving me cute overload. Congrats!
