i love this eels cd: shootenanny. why did i not spin it before today? it speaks to the softer side of jin (yeah, you didn't think it got any softer, did you?). i am grooving to "love of the loveless." for some reason i thought these guys sounded more hard core. perhaps because the tagline under their cd title says "everybody knows thse are rock hard times."

btw, hootenanny means:
1) An informal performance by folk singers, typically with participation by the audience.
2) Informal. An unidentified or unidentifiable gadget.
