I was in Tokyo on business trip last week, and I got a flyer in a record store (yes - they still exist there!!!) It stated release date first week in October. -

Tower Records Japan lists 15 songs!

However, I will take the Pope's suggestion and look for new dis-information in the "Lies and Inventions" section. I actually love that part--it's hilarious. But, in truth, I don't visit it as often as I might because it's a pain in the ass to scroll through his entire life every time I vi...

The reviews for Sugarcanes show are getting very predictable. 1. Summation of career, mention of 'shifting styles', possible mention of KOA. 2. List of hits performed, mention of changed tempo 3. Single out a couple of band members for praise, usually Jerry or Jim. 4. Positive if slightly skeptical...

I want you in an almost 7min long version.
