The Gnomes...they help me...

I've been re-writing "Bridger" to make it not be so freaking boring; I need some stuff to play solo that doesn't sound utterly retarded without Jake-o. Also (as he mentioned in an earlier post) I tend to get tired of our earlier material, which leads to a visit from The Revisionist Gnomes. "Bridger" in particular has been accused of sucking live because it's too long and plodding, so it was a good candidate for tweakage. I'm pretty satisfied with this shorter, more linear version; come out to a show - when I finally announce one - and hear it! Tell 'em "the Gnomes sent me" and you'll get free admission at the door. And yes, I'll be playing a free admission venue.

If you like-a the Toad, you'll like this: Glen was on some goofy show called JBTV (in Chicago) recently, and he talked for awhile and ran through a few acoustic numbers and whatnot. JBTV also played footage of a 1992 visit to the station from the entire band, who commenced to perform a rollicking and funny version of "Is It For Me?", which is about five minutes into the stream.
