Aha! That's a great point. A few digests ago I noticed that someone had been
slightly disappointed when, at a show, they heard the familiar notes of
Poughkeepsie. Disappointment? gee whiz, I'd be crying for joy. But then, I
only own GDBD and have heard only a few other of their recordings, and no, I
have no clue as to what all the fuss is about Moth, since it hasn't graced
my ears...yet(?). And I've never seen them in concert, but plan on doing so
sometime this coming year...So, anyways, just wanted to say "thanks" to
Kelvin, for indeed: "to most of us...it's fresh."
