So the first step in pre-production is for me to come up with my short list of songs that I'm going to consider for the record. I will probably do about 11 songs on the record and will probably go to Nashville with about 16-17 songs...
So... I really could use help with this. a lot of people helped with this step on the first record and it was incredibly useful... I know which songs I think are the best, but that doesn't mean I'm right!
So... I know this seems a bit self indulgent, but could you guys maybe chime in with which of my songs you might like to hear on the new record?
- Greg

Old Radio....definitely
a la early Counting Crows (except sing like you, not Adam Duritz).

My boys have starte going to sleep listening to the original downloads of the 52/52 project. (They don't fall asleep because you are boring, they fall asleep because it's 9:30 and when they finally hold still long enough to listen their bodies fall asleep. It's beautiful.) I'll have to get another demo cd from you of your new stuff.

I'm considering songs from the 52 songs project too... if there's some of those that you think should be included on the new record, let me know.

"End of You and Me", definitely. I am in love with that song.

DEFINITELY Put Back Together! Also I think there's one called Little that you did at the Milford show. I think those are both incredible.

It is good news to me that all of the ones you guys have mentioned so far are on my short list! Keep 'em coming. In a few weeks, I will be asking for some volunteers to let me send you a demo CD of about 20 songs and have you give me your top 10. If any of you would be interested in that, let me know.

Thanks sam... no worries. There will be no talking blues on this record. I don't want to be known as the talkin' blues guy.
