This song is really fun to play live because it can last 3 minutes or 3 days. It's more or less a "felt-out" song except for certain parts when I call out codes to Tanner (our drummer).
Those codes mean numbers. One of them, for instance, is "MJ". If either of us say "MJ" to each other, we play the next part 23 times before we go back into the main groove.
We weren't sure how we were going to record it since it relies so much on live interaction, but Rob at High Speed Dubbing had us record live and we blew it out in one take. Big thanks to Rob! You rule!
We plan on this being one of two songs going on a 3-way split between Us, Big Fiction and Innards. Keep an eye out for it!
We realize this is an 8-and-a-half minute song. We also realize most people don't have the attention span to sit through a song that long. Suck it up or we'll grow plants through your brain.
