Travis,
As you promised late last week, I received my copies of ISLAND OF LOST MINDS and POPULATION OVERRIDE this morning -- I just about fell over when I opened the mailbox. I figured being in NY I\'d have to wait an extra day or so...
Thanks again for your great service and for the killer music...
Best regards,
Rob
Thanks Rob, the U.S. post office can still do a couple of things right.
Same here....... I\'m on the east coast as well and I didn\'t think you meant US when you said some of you will get them as early as next week. I got Population Override today in the mail (got Island of Lost Minds last Thursday). I am especially pumped because I\'m seeing Buckethead LIVE tomorrow night opening for Particle, and now I have 2 full days to sink this album into my system.!!!
Oh, and about the album..... I think it\'s Excellent, and I only listened to it once. Amazing how you guys came up with ANOTHER distinct and interesting sound, different from Cobra Strike and Thanatopsis. I love the conceptual theme of this album, too -- it\'s actually something I\'ve started up quite a few discussions over!! Plus, Population Override doesn\'t sound like any of the other recent Bucket albums...... and from the preview track alone, it sounds like Cuckoo Clocks will be yet another overall sound. Brilliant..... just brilliant.
Anyway, thank you very much Travis, for the excellent music you make (and make quickly available), and for making other Buckethead projects that you may not have even worked on still be available through your site. As a musician trying to get myself started in this business/game, you give me hope that it can be done right, that it can be done well, and that it can still be about the MUSIC (a concept that seems to have all but vanished).... and keep the BS to a minimum.
Thanks again!!! ......... Jim
Thank you Jim, your comments are what make doing it, just for the music, worthwhile.
