I now have a new theme song. Which is good because my old theme song was karma chameleon and I hate Culture Club. I don't know how that happened. Anyway the song is way cooler than the movie trilogy. The CRAP you can see on TV late at night. Good job Mike.
Fade up from black.
Dust swirls as a tire comes to a stop.
The bottom of a door opens. A boot slides out and heavily hits the ground, twisting up dust.
Up "beer Wars."
The shot rotates out to a WS and behind the character as he stands staring at an immense ship, shadowed by the setting sun....
Hmmm.

Lyrics:
Mini Van
I’m driving my Mini Van around
I’m driving it everywhere in town
I’m driving my Mini Van
Try to catch me if you can
I’m driving my Mini Van around
Seems Like I can always catch the eye…
Another Live performance with former band mates in Scartaglen back in 1988 on the NPR show Mountain Stage. This time a piece of Gaelic mouth music followed by 3 reels. Maybe the most complex arrangement of a set of tunes that we ever did.
My tribute to Bill Hicks, one of the all time great stand-up comedians...always liked this guy... another one that died way too soon...youtube him if unaware of his work. Peace.
An experiment I recorded yesterday with a rig I put together for more or less ambient sounds using two loopers and nearly every effects unit I own. I have no idea who Clark was but he owned the '58 Harmony Stratotone that I used on this cut. His…
These Bordello tunes are nice and relaxing.
I was ready for that 2nd chord in my song too. I didn't realize how uncomfortable my hand would get holding the same chord for a few minutes.
an outtake from the first album in 2005.
Joe Silence - guitar and electronics
Mark Cook - Warr Guitar, programming and electronics

Lyrics:
Crazy people, wander round all night
Looking toward the Heavens
At little specs of light
Dragging round their telescopes
And Binoculars
All the tools they need to gaze among the stars
Crazy people, look at what they do…

Oh Yes, I'm getting thirsty now! I think I have a cold Beck's up in the refrigerator. Here I GOooo...
nice!
There can be a quest no more important. Rocks.
Quirky and fun. I like!
Can't remember if I've said this before. This is a really fun song.
I agree with Tydal
Gotta love zombie killing music! Excellent.
I know what ya mean
great tune, really fun. i like all the different dynamics and riffs, excellent guitar playing throughout.
Set a sail on a sea of xxx : unison lead+ vocal is powerful. Panned vocals rock! Yuo, I like it
That rocks! Nice!
That second chord was such a relief!
Comments made by Mike Grunert
Drink on!
Like it, I'm driving my mini van around!
Very nice, the vocal part was cool.
Gotta give props to Pinhead, like it!
Nice layering on this and thanx for the feedback.
Very frightening! Kind of reminds me of the scary section of Pink Floyd's Echoes. I feel like a train is approaching to take me to hell.
I like the mood and build up.
I had fish fry last night. This song is Wisconsin all the way. Nice harp playing. Yum!
Some good thrashing!
Very intense tune!
Thanks for synth advice.
I need to buy a keyboard. Any suggestions for a decent fairly cheap keyboard. I would use it mainly for ambience and filling out the sound.
These Bordello tunes are nice and relaxing. I was ready for that 2nd chord in my song too. I didn't realize how uncomfortable my hand would get holding the same chord for a few minutes.
Thanks for feedback on Death Rattle Blues. The end is my favorite part.
Nice treatment. You got some serious chops!
Kind of like Buckethead, I like it!
The bar is in every town. Let's get a drink! Nice guitar jams, I'm bobbing my head.
Nice song and playing.
Spooky, atmospheric stuff. Reminds me of GTR OBLQ from Vernon Reid, Elliot Sharp and David Torn.
Like the words. I should play banjo again, haven't in a long time.
