The Silly Dittys

Okay, it seems that maybe Jason Boots was a bit slow with the day 5 Turbo Ocho video, as I've check right before crashing, and a new video was up.

Explains why there were two songs up today, I Know You Better from yesterday, and Summer Number 39 today.

Today's video has definitely been the best of the bunch, with the guys goofing off while they waited for Roger to arrive back at where they're recording. The compelling part is that all of their goof off songs, in my opinnion, they should record. Steve's song about the woman with the big toe was great, albeit fairly silly. Given it sounds like the music recorded makes me wonder if their isn't another rocker (maybe without Steve's kooky lyrics [wink] ) in the pipeline.

P.H's "Waiting for Roger" song is actually awesome. I'm sure he'd just kidding around, but the guitar and melody - flat out awesome. It'd really be great if they used that somehow. Simiarly, the "Steve's Got A Myspace" ditty is really cool. And finally, the "Mana" song is, while a goof off, pretty cool. And definitely reminencent of the "we don't take ourselves too seriously" Refreshments era.

In all seriousness, it'd be great to see these as a hidden track, or something.

This latest video has definitely made me reasonable excited about the Peacemakers again, and quite glad of the conscious decision to follow the The Ocho Sessions project.

Viva la rock and roll!
