I love this part in Virginia Reel. Makes me laugh every time I hear it. "15% off if you have a student card, you gotta have a student card to get the discount........City Bus Rules!"
I think he was just ad-libbing (or is it adding lib)and he/they decided to keep it, it's great.
The waxworks were an immensely eloquent dissertation on the wonderful ordinariness of mankind. |

It'll be on the air next year,

Hey Craig,
Is this THE Mr. McCracken?
Awesome to see you throw a nod in Foster's about City Bus Rules!
Pray For The Girls is a personal Favorite by the way, Cheers for that!

I like the little whistle at the end of this song. It kind of sounds like bus brakes or something. |

I love this song. I can't help but think this would have made a great Pixies song. Just weird and awesome enough. Sue me. |

Thanks, I'll have to pony up the $1.98 and get me some of that.
Extra Bluefinger. Awesome

Could I stay just for awhile?
I wouldn't call these songs "extra Bluefinger." They're not in the Bluefinger vein at all. But they're certainly worth buying.
 Please pardon me, for these my wrongs. |

(my house loves your show!)
Virginia Reel floats my boat. Do you think it's wasted just being a bonus track? Aslong as we get to hear it, right? |

I was just thinking about this. I like the part about "that's what you say when someone gives you a light." 
Every thought a ricochet...

I love that song too. The "Eric is a good dog" line is funny as well--gives me a chucekl in the car while listening. The song captures the drowzy, somber feelings of a long bus/trainride and somehow blends the mundane with humor (perhaps drunkeness) and a sense of the sublime. |

I love that part too! The whole song is great though.
