Rachel,
You can of course mail order a cd. You can send your address to thehoothoots at gmail.com and pay however you want to, just let us know.
I will put up the rest of the lyrics tonight at some point so that you all can check them out!
Hopefully we will have another show on tuesday. YAY RACHEL IS A MASTER!
We ordered a set of PA speakers so that we can practice and hear adam at the same time.
I miss everyone
I hope to see everyone soon!! graduation partay!
Peace
Christina

I am now a master of anthropology! whee! I suppose it is still not technically on my transcript, but the thesis and all of the paperwork has been turned in, and the person from the graduate school congratulated me. Sadly, I still have three weeks until the quarter ends.

Zach, you are making me impatient to see Adam so that I can hear the new album myself. Adam, any chance I could do a mail order? Then, by the time I actually get to see you, I can be gushing about how awesome it is. :D

Hello all,
It's been a while since I posted in this digital dimension but since Adam and Christina’s visit I've felt inclined to do so. First off, let me clarify that my psychological research which Adam explained as "manipulating the religious right" is purely exploratory and I have as of yet no plans to brain wash all inhabitants of the world...yet being the operative word. Secondly, I wanted to say that I'll be out in Galesburg for graduation this year. It'll be my first time back to Galesburg since graduating and I'm looking forward to seeing some of you peoples.

Ok, this next part is for Adam.

I want to start out by saying that when a friend gives me music he/she has created there is inevitably a rather striking bit of bias on my part. However, no matter how it sounds, one is generally inclined to laud praise based merely on the successful production of organized sound.

It is indeed quite rare that one receives music created by a friend from one's own lowly peasant class that actually rivals beloved music from the rock elite. In this case dear Adam I say with the utmost honesty that the cd you gave me is currently my favorite cd. This favorite cd status entails listening to the cd at least 3 times a day and placing various songs on mixed cds I'm composing for other friends. It only took three run-throughs for me to fall madly in love with your opus. I am particularly enamored with track 10 but I also enjoy track 11, 5, 6, along with the rest. However, I noticed that you do not have the lyrics posted for all of your songs and thus request you make Stan do so at her earliest convenience. I am truly amazed with your work and how far you've come.

I watched a documentary yesterday about Daniel Johnston called "The Devil and Daniel Johnston" and I am just wondering how long before you're famous. Although I do hope you can skip the whole manic-depressive breakdown part.

To everyone else I hope your travels through this world go smoothly, but not so smoothly that you forget the ride.


Sincerely,
-Z-

hey guys. it's true what Pete says, Blogger hates me & deleted my last entry, which was long and involved and informative...but now gone, and i don't care to re-write it.

I'm in Colorado now, and you guys probably got the mass-email i just sent. those who didn't, hopefully i'll get it on Livejournal next (the link to that is in my facebook profile). Colorado is very cool, but imho way too conscious of the fact that it is so cool. (read: i have never seen so many knotty pine furnishings IN MY LIFE.)

i'm in the middle of nowhere and lucky to be online right now. Today everyone is off, which means there were multiple people with cars to beg for a ride to somewhere i could use the internet. Once the guest season starts, i have no idea with whom and whether i'll be able to get to this cafe. *sigh*

But i love being able to read what everybody's up to on here... facebook is good, but this is more informative. love to all!

Em
