"Time is Right Now" The Maldives Live @ High Dive
"I Have Found" The Maldives Live @ Tractor Tavern 1.19.08
The day had left me tired in a strange way, and I was about in the mood to skip supper and lay down in the short grass and rest, lay there and watch the white moon move across the sky. I flipped a stick into the tank and watched it bob on the rising water. It made me think of an old hillbilly song by Moon Mulligan, called "I'll Sail My Ship Alone." With all the dreams I own. Sail it out across the ocean blue, ride me down easy.
You guys kinda fuckin' ruled CMJ...maybe you didn't think so, but we're that drunk guy that stuck around for the whole show that wanted to know "what pedals you used". It was that good!
Thank you for being our friend. Uncle DooDad invites you to stop by http://www.uncledoodad.com/ and check out the live recordings we’ve posted from recent shows in Seattle, Portland and Bellingham. Lots more streaming audio for free on the site too.
