Perfect song for me to be hearing at 12:30 am! I imagine being in a bar hearing this with a drink in my hand. Great funky song...love the strong bass work and guitar effects and the different sections. Pretty epic song!
omg....this really appeals to me. Gives me that Velvet Underground - Lou Reed feel. Super cool. I actually looked up 880 skyline lol. I used to live right beside a highway and a busy train track. I love what's going on at 4:42 btw
Another true tale. This one chronicling the turning point in my life: getting nearly-killed with brass knuckles on Paine's Creek Road in Red Buff. Ca. in 1992.

OK, this is a bit of a departure for me - posting songwriting demos.
This is a one mic recording made this morning in the living room, touch of reverbs…
This is kick-ass! You have a great voice and I love your guitar playing. When you have great ingredients like that, you don’t need much more than good material, of which there is plenty here! I am very inspired listening to this. I appreciate you sharing it and I look forward to delving deeper -bjk
Andrew:
I am working on the lyrics and tightening up a few things. I am saving vocals for last for all of these tracks. Obviously, this one could use a bunch of lyrics. I was going for a very loose, spacey jam... I wanted it to feel like the drummer was trying to find it. I appreciate your notes and the Electric Ladyland reference is very kind! I look forward to figuring out the lyrics to this one.
I appreciate your kind words tremendously, this is a special one. There should be a space between "Signs" and this and I appreciate you spotting that for me. I will add some space at the end of signs... what is another :23 on a 13-minute song?
Andrew,
Thank you for your kind words! I appreciate you listening and I will return the favor with yours. Should I give "FAWM 2022 Song-writing Demos" a spin?
Thanks: I needed something long to put a spoken word-ish thing over. Definitely was fun to record. Now I am working on the lyrics. I appreciate your kind words!

Woah! Yeah. This grabs me big time. I'll listen to some others tomorrow - but right now I gotta get some sleep!
Anther great tune!
Yeah! That's a cool tune. Very rocky and catchy. I also really like the ending scratchy amp sounds...love that effect.
That is rock'n!! Awesome electric guitar work.
Love that pre-chorus chord progression. Good stuff!
Check Phaeyness on OH tracks -x Add distortion to Eric's Solos -x
Quite like the solo here No doubt the Orange one will litigate until a cheese burger claims him.
Best take on the proceedings I've heard
excellent!
1. Lead guitars down. 2. Lead vocals up a hair
Clean up kick drum and check overheads
fast and DIY, nice !
Brian Kenny Goes Electronic. Love it
Wow, you put it out there. Powerful.
Great Vibe and lyrics!
Cool guitar sounds. Really like the solo.

Giggling keeps us young
You always kind of giggle when you dance
I don’t know where we are going But we’re making good time
