This is pretty sweet, definitely different from what you usually run across on the web. The website is great too, it makes looking for all the songs more interesting than a plain list of links.

Thanks. I tried to keep it interesting.

Yeah that’s a very creative website, did you make it yourself?

Down loading it now. Very cool. Really nice site.

I dreamt it up storyboard style, then asked a few tech savy friends to work it. They’re both on the Arrows (links) page.
The concept was to give someone something to look at while they listend to the music. And of course, let them download the album for free. I stole that idea from someone else…

Ya know, when I first heard this I thought it sounded good and I down loaded it. At first I liked it but I thought it would just be good background party music. The last couple of days I’ve really started to listen to it a lot, just to check it out a little more. Wow! This is good stuff! I especially like Ten Things To Do If I Live. I mean I really like them all, but if it were me I would have had a hard time deciding between that and Risk & Uncertainty as the opening track. The whole 3 part Risk & Uncertainty thing kind of precludes that though. All in all I give it an 10 on a scale of 1 to 20, understanding that Pink Floyd’s Animals is the highest ranking album of all time at 15 and Brad’s I Don’t Know What I’m Doing is an 11. Just for further clarification, Presence by Led Zeppelin is a 12.5, Toys In The Attic by Areosmith is a 12, Wish You Were Here by Pink Floyd is a 14, The Wall by Pink Floyd is a 13, Fly By Night and 2112 by Rush are 12′s, all 6 real Black Sabbath albums are 13′s, Some Girls by The Rolling Stones is a 12, ‘And Justice For All by Metallica is a 13, and Nevermind by Nirvana is a 14. Pretty good company I’d say! I don’t have it right now but in the near future how can I donate to the cause?

Wow… Not sure what to say, but thank you. Some serious company you’ve thrown me in with and I love them all. Finally downloaded all of Animals, just a few days ago and listened to that guitar break over and over. You know the one about 4 minutes into Dogs?
I appreciate your willingness to donate, but the best way to help me out is to tell friends and introduce other folks to the music. Probably the same way we all do with Brad’s music. If you’re willing to hand out a few CDs I’ll send as many hard copies to you as you want. My contact info is in the 1st post.
Thanks again, man.

No problem! I’ve already started giving it away and telling people about it. BTW I’m just gonna have to up grade it to a 10.5. Just keeps getting better and better the more I listen to it. Gotta find the time to study the lyrics now.

Thanks, man. Let me know what you think. They’re all on ther website.

I like the song The Cost, but other than that I’m sorry to say that your music is not really the style I like. Great initiative though and the site looks really nice.
Now I’ll take a look at all the other artist featured in the arrows section and see what I can see. Thanks for introducing it all on this forum btw.

Tony,
Take a listen to Aaron Sprinkle and Sufjan Stevens. Those two artists have a lot of acoustic goodness to offer.

Still like this a lot! Can you make it so the lyrics can be highlighted so I can copy & paste them instead of having to print out the whole color page? I have more time to study lyrics at work.
I’ve checked out all the music on your links page. I like a lot of it so far. I’ll listen more in the next few weeks.
You call Rogue Wave “The modern day Simon & Garfunkel sound, …” though I get what you mean it seems ironic that you should use Simon & Garfunkel as a reference to Rogue Wave when at times it’s uncanny how much Timmy Curran’s sound reminds me of Paul Simon’s sound.

Thanks, Dave. I really appreciate the feedback. I’m sorry about the Flash Player lyrics and what not, but right now I don’t have the means to even access my own site. I’m out of the country and have really poor internet service.
True about Timmy Curran. I also think his song “Moving On” sounds a little like Brad.
