.. .......................................... .... .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .... .. .. ...... .. .. .. ...... .. .. .. .... .. .. .... .. The Captain calls sails t' fly .. Hoist 'em tight, the nite is nigh .. O'er ocean's crash of cold .. Strayt to star my fate unfolds .. .. Peace and calm, down below .. But at bow, wer thee wind doth blow .. A grypp of wood to keep my plase .. Oot at see you leev no trase .. .. "Storm's a-brewin!" he screems from atop .. "Man the ankor, giv it all she's got!" .. A distant voice trys its best .. But I turn to greet, mast wyth chest .. .. Muskets trane on enemy heds .. Powder & shot .. Ar yor only too friends .. Swingin' ship to ship, .. Greeting death wyth a smile .. Victory is ars! .. (or at leest for a wile) .. .. The Captain calls sails t' fly .. Hoist 'em tight, the nite is nigh .. O'er ocean's crash of cold .. Strayt to star my fate unfolds!.... .. ...... .. .. .. ........ .. .. .. Rearview Minor is a project I've cultivated over the past year or so, with help from a bunch of friends. It started as a couple of songs I just recorded for fun, but has turned into a 10 song album with about 6 or 7 b-sides spanning various styles of rock. .. The name "Rearview Minor" was formed in much the same manner as some of the songs: Through a combination of bonus time and the energy that comes from pals recently reunited, much more appearance of substance and meaning is apparent than is actually there. But its not all smoke and mirrors. "Rearview Minor" has prophetically come to symbolize the childhood nostalgia embodied by these songs, from old southern jig to pirate anthem to traditional irish pub sing-a-long. Looking back to the pre-adulthood days when everything seemed possible, and responsibility was as transparent as leaf of iceberg lettuce on a fine summer day... What? Anyways, even though this is not a band, I will be playing a few of these songs with my new bandmember, ..Sanjay Dilawari.. in a band we have yet to completely form or name. Though I am pushing for "Rearview Minor". He wants to be "London Dawn". Except we're not from London. .. Anyways, please enjoy the music. Once I finish the final edits I will put the album up for download on ..our website.., though right now there is an earlier version available for download. Comments are always appreciated. .. -Drew .. .... .. .. I enjoy listening for random music on myspace. If i friend you its because i like your music, i like your page, i know you, or some combination of the three. I don't mass friend people, and I dont like it when people do. Please type a message along with your friend request, and enjoy the tunes. The bands below are good. I suggest you check them out..... .. .. .. ..

a simpleton stampede, a coxcomb carnival, a daydreamers cabal, a platitude-peddling potlatch, a nihilists ambulation on tiptoe, an incantation of the language in the corners of your eyes.
