Damn....Wilmington fit into my schedule perfectly....now it looks like they are playing The Music Farm in Charleston on Friday 6-15....I will be returning from Hawaii on the 15th so it looks like a no-go for me.

While I don't think horns really have a place in a Son Volt song, I don't mind them too much on "The Picture". However, I am hoping that the alternate version on the Best Buy EP will be hornless, or at least significantly less horny!

A great song....the best I've heard so far from the new album. Please share. Chords? G, C, D, Em. Capo 2nd. There's some variation of some other chord in there somewhere that I can't figure out. Try holding your pinky on the second string, third fret thru the changes...I think thats the sound.....b...

I know the Masterson plays the same guitar, but that sure looked like Brad.

I don't want to download their software and don't think DRM is good for the customer. Don't you want what's good for Jay? So what do YOU think....that Jay is going to go broke by selling an unprotected 14 song CD for $15 but will make it up by selling lossy protected downloads on Itunes for .99 a s...

I'd be interested to know if this is going to make it outside the US ITunes store, since the last exclusive (the live EP) did not. The European release of the album is already 3 weeks behind the US, I think. It would be a shame, though typical, if the loyal European fans missed out (again). I agree...

Whatever happened to the dow...

Puddy berry damn good!
The Picture sounds great....I was afraid of those horns but they do sound OK. hopefully for the live versions the horns will get replaced by some kick-ass guitar lines from Brad and not a cheesy keyboard line.
All 4 streaming songs sound good...can't wait to hear all 22!
