Hey Mike, you looked up the lyrics to Metiorite Shower? Where? i'm curious! Well the song talks about how ruthlessly crul nature can be within the peace of it i guess, with the imagery of a missing body washed into a lake by a land slide as as the world around is like a sleeping beauty ... that kinda thing

I am everywhere,
We are here,
You are there in Ocean air,
Broadway's LCBOs, Mountain Snows,
A jaguar perched on a rocky top,
Poised,to strike,
Yet no blood is drawn,
Only ass shaking grooves brooming back cosmic dust,
Before we were rust, then we learn to trust,
Then came the forces of combustible thrust,
Yes we are many, and yet there a few
So a message from Joey Sedan, from us to you,
Still you may wonder, during rain and thunder,
We all make mistakes and many a blunder,
But soon you can find though musical adventures,
That even with old age comes removable dentures,
So take out your teeth, push through your grief,
Grab some tobacco and go see the chief,
Ask him your question and put the bundle in his hand,
If he takes your offering maybe answers will understand,
All in a sweet leaf
Joey Sedan, he is relief.

Much Love, Joey Sedan

Yeah, I changed the jukebox...you asked 'How are we supposed to have a revolution if you keep switchin' up the jukebox?'

And I say, how can we have a revolution if nothing ever changes.

Miss you Mike...what's up in Vancouver for ya. Wish you could see this play I am workin and playing at...they'd love you here if you came screamin like you do.

Wannabe part of our CD release? You've always been part of what we're doing...it would only be appropriate to have you and DRP on the stage at some point...love joe
