I am happy to find a place that I can rant on about the meaning of some of the songs and someone might even read them, much less understand them. I find that no too many people can follow the songs and I wonder if I am not the only one sometimes, in which they seem so damn clear. The new album was what I have been waiting for for a long time. I was taken with Smokey Joe the worst. I've gone around quoting it to anyone who'll tolerate it. "One's past is not a destination. It is a road for fools who need empty approval." I have been through so much and I have had the CD's the whole time.
