Finally heard the soon-to-be-legend 05.02.02 boro show which I so sadly missed. The new number titled 'Don't Wait for Me' (which I'm assuming is the right title) absolutely kills me. Can Matt Pelham write a Bad song? Oh yeah, right, almost forgot about Extension Chord.

You know you have problems, with both money and alcohol, when you find yourself shoving beers down your pants outside a Features show.

I must say that I have yet to hear a song that I didn't like. And, I was really into the new ones at the Boro show on 5-2. Could I love the Features more? Probably not.

Hey Lou pops up maybe once a year. I missed its last appearance on stage and kick myself in the head for missing.

I suppose they might play them on the 21st. I'd love that since I didn't make it out to the Boro on 5/2.

'Don't wait For Me' is good, but 'You've Really Done It This Time' is better. It's pretty angry sounding. And I love how he yells. 'You've really done it this ti- eye- eye -eye- ime!' I guess the live version we heard at the Boro on May 2 is an early prototype, so I hope that yell stays in there.

Of course, I favor both of the songs. But, I really do like, 'You've Really Done It This Time'. I remember just watching them play and rocking back and forth as fast as I could. I was really into that song.
