Re: Go Go Boots and Secret To A Happy Ending Out Feb 15

This probably isn't much help, but pretty sure you can still get it as a Bonus Track when/if you download TBTD from iTunes.....but only if you buy the whole album, and surely anyone on TDD already has it in some format or another.

this is like the song wig was supposed to be...it's among my least favourites on the big to-do (still like it a lot though), this on the other hand...


Agree 110% on both counts. Shonna's bass is up front and badass and flat-out driving the song. Good stuff.

Re: New Freed DBT art for sale

I think it is a reasonable price for the original piece. He will also do a commissioned portrait in that same price range. I emailed Jyl in late '04 about a commissioned piece I was thinking about having done for my business partner's birthday. While I'm way into Wes' style, before I pulled the tri...

Re: Value of DBT "stuff"

Not sure what to think of the I Do Believe single being auctioned on eBay, sounds like it fell into the wrong hands and that person chose to profit from it. Personally, I wouldn't consider them a "fan". Agree - was wondering that myself. I was hoping to "keep it in the family," ...

Value of DBT "stuff"

I was bidding a few days ago on eBay for a promo CD of "I Do Believe" (first track on upcoming GGB). I lost out after bidding $20 and going about my day. Was hoping I'd get it, but was also happy that another fan (hopefully) was snagging a little piece of DBT history for their own personal...

Re: Richmond VA Oct 29-30

Phew. Just now recovered. Saturday night was certainly the best all-around DBT show I've seen in years. It had it all: almost 3 hours long, two great new tunes, the always-appreciated Patterson-Cooley laughing/interplay, Cooley with a big 'ol buzz, Neff smiling and into it (and on fire) and tossing ...
