Listen to my stuff if you have the time. Plenty of Margot influence in it to go around.

I thinkkkkk, you do the same thing i do. You use too much of the music you listen to in your own songs. I dont think you can get away with the settle down riff
with the margot-esque chord progression.

Whats a Margot-esque chord pattern? I got 'settle down' from both Lennon and Margot. I was more worried about the song 'A Perfect Wreck' being
to much a Margot rip, which it basically is..

IMO... you've got some good starts going on...
influence and emulation are a good way to get the juices flowing, but you do have to stand out on your own to an extent... It's ok to run with a feeling that a song gives you, or a feeling you get from someone's lyrics... but copping lyrics directly is a little different. |

Thanks for listening guys. And, I realize coping someones lyrics is frowned upon, but it happens a lot, Richard may have taken 'Crazy as a loon' in the
song Allison from Dylan's '115th dream', Oasis stole T-Rex's 'It's good to be back' right out from under him. Kurt Cobain even said
"Music is one big rip-off". I'm not defending myself, I'm just putting that out there. And I appreciate both of you for taking the time to
listen to my songs.

I would say the crazy as a loon would be more of a John Prine ripoff, but thats a very popular simile.

The sound is great! I really like Caliente, especially when it gets to the heavy-jammy part.

Since I'm definitely still shameless... just finished recording a new EP.
Tracking was done a few nights a week over the span of about 5 months... much to the chagrin of my producer, I wore the same Margot T-shirt, unwashed to every tracking session. I will admit, it was nice to wash that thing and wear it out in public (since it came out of the Buzzard box and straight onto my back...lol). http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ISDDmDuEhH8 |
