“Some Other Place” I wrote under the influence of Roddy Frame after seeing Aztec Camera perform at GW University. “Secret Safety Net” borrows the basic guitar riff of “The Milkman of Human Kindness” by Billy Bragg. My favorite song from this collection is “Your Secret Place.”

“And the Band Played ‘Freebird’” was my response to all the brilliant wits who would scream for “FREEBIRD!!” during my acoustic sets at Dylan’s Café in Georgetown. Someone had to do something about this problem.
