Hooper, holy shyte, man! :o :o :o

Thanks to Joe (cuthbert) posting this on Facebook, or I never would have known the beauty.  Now I must listen to this 1000 times in a row and hope -- just HOPE -- that one day I might be this good myself.  Those vocals are better (yes, I said it) than Roger Daltrey ever sounded, with harmonies sublime.  The rich, layered guitars are utterly insane.

Sorry to everyone that I haven't been around, but The Stan Laurels (my "band") are finally forming into an actual live band so we can start playing shows, and this, along with work and family, is taking all of my time.  It's songs like this that make me really miss the Forum.

I'm glad I did not miss this one.  Hooper, you are an amazing musician.  Joe, thanks for posting.

Sheer genius. Even by your usually (or should that be UNUSALLY?!) high standards, this one is right at the top of the tree. Great guitar tone, immaculate production, and kick-ass harmonies. You couldn't have done this any better. Outstanding stuff.

Oh yeah!!  :D

I don't have a whole lot else to say except that 12 string and the harmonies were awesome. It's the Who song you play over and over again. I'll be doing it with your version too!


Sweeeeet!!!!

this has been on repeat in my car cd player all week, picture the scene a scotsman and his two daughters on the school run in a traffic jam, every person in every other car have desperate frustrated looks but in my old banger we are all headbanging and singing like the scene from waynes world. we do get some odd looks but do we care.
thanks hoop for making the school run less stressfull.
