"Spite" the album

[bfj]

anyone check it out? is it that bad?

[martino]

i am in the process of checking it out. first impression is that the lyrics are impressive, the singing pretty good, the guitar negligible. haven't gotten a hook on the compositions yet. but give me a few days for a detailed comment, please!

Sat down this afternoon with Henry (My son aged five) played bits of the first three. Came to cockpit and we thought it rocked. I told him it was about crashing a plane. We turned it up and wer having a fine old time until you said, "Fucking." I pjust pretended that I hadn't heard it. Henry's not stupid. I could see the cogs turning. That word is just waiting for the right moment to pop out.

As a matter of fact I like cockpit the best. I don't like the backing vocal. I do love the voiceover. Would love to hear it as a balls to the wall electrified version.

It's possible that I could become a BFJ stalker.

Any one who can play a guitar and sing from the heart makes me swoon.

j/k man...well-not really-just kidding that I'll become your stalker...

Very good...are you going to perform this stuff anywhere in NYC??? Matt and I could be in the front row screaming your name.

Matt-the Guiness pub would be perfect for this..no?

we can get you into Paddys. they do an open mic.

[TragicPixie]

I like it

[Maverick]

I haven't been able to listen yet. No high speed internet yet in my new apartment. I'll come to the open mic night though!

Looking forward to hanging out with you and mccutcheon in the big bad city.

Thank you to everyone who listened. I shut my phone off and spent the weekend sweating and recording and I've finished 16 songs. So I want to send some copies of the cd out to people who are willing to listen and tell me which songs I should drop off the album. I think I want to get it down to 12 songs. send me and email, with an address i can send it to, to:

rforegger@yahoo.com

[Tom]

If you leave an extra copy w/Matt I'll pick mine up.

Thanks
