Al : Guitar, Vox Jess : Tambourine, Vox

Al : Piano, Harmonica, Vox Jess : Tambourine, Vox

I forgot to put on my harmonica for this one. So there's a missing solo. Oops. Al : Piano, Vox Jess : Vox

Homage, in various ways, to Bowie, Arcade Fire, Airborne Toxic Event. I wrote most of it while out running on dirt roads near the Cody landfill.

Title is a reference to a 2009 RPM album's title. It is a song about leaving Chicago.

The *cough* future *cough* mayor of Chicago holding court with his corporate backers.

This song is a meditation on the concept of freedom.

Again, Jess' lyrics speak for themselves. Man, distorted guitar is tough to mix around.

Jess wrote the lyrics for this one, and unlike when I write lyrics, they speak for themselves.

This song is about George Washington, and how politicians in the *cough* future world this album inhabits *cough* could perhaps use a bit of his character.
