goodwin

missed the premiere of three new goodwin songs on the good show sunday, but ran into tony diaz at the fwac acoustic monday thingy last night and got to hear "telekinesis vs. indifference" in his car (same place i heard "march" before the "blue album" came out). the song itself has always seemed like the bastard child in goodwin's set, but the studio has transformed it into something entahrly other -- dare i say "metallic prog?" all that's missing is a shredding solo (which evil dictator daniel "less is more" gomez is loath to play) for the goodwin guys to be ready to go head-to-head with addnerim. tony's voice even sounds higher, _almost_ (but not quite) in the geddy lee range. [pertinent facts: 1) damien stewart digs rush. 2) the underground railroad has been gigging more lately. 3) sat'day night at the sundance square flying saucer, damien and matt hembree were playing '80s hair metal toons with pablo & the hemphill 7.] not sure what this could portend, but my interest is definitely piqued.
