I grabbed it from Matt's site before he took it down.

I found it hard to believe you were in contact with Matt, but I guess I'll give you the benefit of the doubt.

It was on the prospective track list on November 20th, but it's true, a lot could have changed since then.

Yea, it's a great song. I love "I Am Note Safer Than a Bank" too, despite its length. I'm not as fond of "If I Was a Tidal Wave".

Alright, thanks, but what about the earlier (demo) version of "Big City Life" available in the store here? Edit: Was it called "If I Was a Tidal Wave" when Matt posted it, or "I Wish I Was a Tidal Wave"?

I bet he did.

I got a piece, a few pieces actually. Including, but not limited to, Avalanche and In a Coma. On a serious note, he probably chose to keep the art.

Good to hear.

Which of Matt's newer demos have been recorded semiprofessionally, and not just bootlegged? I know "Big City Life", "Black Helicopter", and "I Am Not Safer Than a Bank" were (as well as the demos with Ryan), but what about "Breath of a Nation", "She's In It for the Money", "When Hollywood Runs Out of Indians", "The Boy Come Home", "If I Was a Tidal Wave" and "Metal Airplanes"? Since I need to accumulate posts to download the demos (and the hub seems to be down) I'd rather download the studio demos first. In retrospect, I'm not even 100% confident "Big City Life" was recorded semiprofessionaly before it was released...

Just like in the VHS war, Sony has barred the pornography industry from using their player, meaning it could easily go the way of Beta. Too bad they're too PG to allow adult content on their media.

Neither.

Speaking of pirates, check out the adult film by the same name. It's supreme.

I joined to discuss topics by making posts.

My most recent purchase was "Mad World" by Gary Jules with Michael Andrews. Grabbed it from the iTunes Store once it showed up in Canada.

I'm a fan of the title track.

I love it so much I stole it. Oh wait, I didn't, I think they're terrible.

Tom Petty's newest effort is even better.

I just saw it a few days ago, and unfortunately it didn't live up top my expectations. I didn't like the "plot", or the large amount of scripted situations.

What a fucking great movie. Al Gore is the man.

Unlike most I've talked to, I actually like Shatner's newest album (albeit a few years old now). A few of the guest vocalists I could do without, but that's probably my only complaint. On a side note, I also like a lot of Ben Folds' music, so I was glad to see the two team up.

Metric was recommended to me by a friend, and needless to say I've never listened to anything he's recommended since.

What the hell...

This was possibly the greatest demo Matt released. It sounds like a demo, but a very polished one.

Using Direct Connect is so easy. I don't know how anyone could find it difficult, and I'm not a terribly technical personal.
