I caught that 2006 tour - will have to post a link to my review here later.

I think you have too! What song are you trying to quote?

178. I'm gonna shine out in the wild kindness and hold the world to it's word.
I've always found that line kinda hopeful, like he's finally ready taking the world on again (although it's written before the suicede attempt.. In the context of the song then at least)

I miss him too, but I did not love that last record. I think it signalled a need to give it up for at least a while.

I't didn't quite convince me either, but I still hunger for more..

If he comes back I imagine it will be because he feels he has something new to say musically. I think that last record was evidence that he just wasn't feeling it any more. I think he made the right call for now.

Sleep on your back, and ash in your shoes, and always use the old sense of the word.

183. Every line of "I Remember Me" is amazing, but the ending to the story never fails to absolutely devastate me:
He bought a little land with the money from the settlementAnd he even bought the truck that had hit him that dayHe touched the part where the metal was bent.And if you were there you would hear him say.
I remember her and I remember himI remember them and I remember then..I'm just rememberin' I'm just rememberin'
