That Sound #43 - The eagle has landed!
…well, at least touched down. I’ve arrived in Portland, but didn’t get to do this week’s show live, because I had to go to Seattle (actually, Bellevue) for the weekend. I won’t get to do next week’s show in the studio either, but May 30th, I’ll be officially back in the saddle.

Dave,
The song by Mates of State featured here, “Think Long,” is actually on their previous release entitled Bring It Back. Thanks for sharing it, though. I’ve learned of so many great bands from your show. Thanks!

Aha, so it is! Noted. Thanks for the info! I’ll actually be featuring “My Only Offer” on this week’s show, which really truly IS from Re-Arrange Us.
Thanks for listening, Jon! Now that I’m back in the land, I’ll be having more bands play on the show, starting in just a few weeks. Hope you like it!
