I finally got around to listening to Eddie's Audible Book (I Am Mine). It's worth 80 minutes of your time. Some pretty good performances, and a really fascinating story I wasn't familiar with about how he met Jack Irons. Also an interesting confession of sorts about how having kids has impacted his writing. The way he put it, your best writing/inspiration comes from being out to sea and as a parent you need to be close to shore. Also that writing becomes more of a routinized process you sneak in when you have spare moments.

I forget how old his younger daughter is (well not forget, I don't know), but it'll be interesting to track how his writing changes (if at all) after she is out of the house :) Wikipedia says they were born in 04 and 08, so ST is the first 'post kid' record. I'm not sure which other band members have kids.

I really enjoyed the music. It'd be awesome if they released a record of that stuff.

Except Wishlist. Ed's groaning in Wishlist sucked.
