Welcome, Guest

  1.  
    Hey, I'm having a hard time searching out Come On In on the net. I thought it would be available at the yarnmusic.net store site http://www.yarnmusic.net/store.cfm but there's still only the free Wanted To Get High track.

    Can anyone help me out? I can't download so I'm looking for anywhere that I can purchase a few copies.

    ....great new photo there at the store though of the whole band including Rob. That one should replace the one on the main page that doesn't have Andrew and Rob.

    if you go here:

    and click the little T-Shirt for merch you can find the preorder however it says it it out of stock.

    maybe they sold out in a day? who knows!

    Blake posted the following in the news section of the .net

    PRE-ORDER CURSE
    The pre-order has been cursed. I have no idea what exactly is going on or what went wrong but clearly it is not available at the moment. Hopefully Soon. Sincerest Apologies, Blake

    Link is back up.

    Be warned on the download, it's track by track.

    Ok, I take back my initial hasty assessment of this disc. This collection of songs is first-rate, obviously, and my opinion that it's too laid-back was a bit premature. They still kick all kinds of ass live but this is a better representation than their other discs...and *those* were great! This is a great disc!

    Be even greater if Misery was on it, though!

    Just sayin'.

    I have tried several times but I just get kicked and get an"internal error" message. Maybe tomorrow. And ya I am kind of partial to Misery too but I guess they have to save something for the next album.

    And by the way Reckless, the yarn newsletter is going to be called The Reckless Companion. Guess you're going to have to change your handle. HaHa

    Yes I have the skip in mine too. Some kind of digital artifact that will have to be mastered out by some random taper kind of person? So, I listened to the new album twice through today and it's of course awesome. Not a single burper in the whole bunch. Maybe this is a dumb question but I was just wondering what really got you guys hooked on Yarn in the first place. I think for me it was a combination of Blake's literate writing and the general musician ship and fit of all the members. Some how I can relate to so many of the stories that Blake tells in his songs. Must be my miss spent youth haunting me. I love it when a song can induce a fugue state for a while. Great way to escape reality in little bites. Also, all of the live shows that so many of you have posted on music archive.org have built a deeper interest for me. The live shows are another side of the guys that I enjoy. And man since I am spewing I wish people would just shut up and listen to the music at the shows.

    Skip here too.

    Saw Yarn when we went to the Main Pub to see Girls, Guns & Glory.

    What?

    GGG is OPENING for this band? Who the hell are they? Never looked back after that!

    To quote Ben Nichols of Lucero "So what if all my heroes are the losing kind?" Hard to not identify with Blake & Shane's great lyrics.

    Skip To My Lou?

    Two weeks ago, 'Come On In' was at #7 on the Americana Radio Play charts. Last week, a dip to #8.

    If this (http://twitpic.com/22f5c7) is to believed, then it's #1 this week ?!?!?

    If that's the case, then this is certainly in order:

    Well, it was a very impressive run for a disc from a band that doesn't tour nationally, doesn't get a lot of press, doesn't do videos (exception for "On The Road" !) but sure rocks the house each and every show.

    Come On In drops out of the Top 10 this week to #13.

    Proud to be a fan.

    Well I'm glad they bested the Big To Do by the Truckers 'cause that one's dreadful. Have you heard Go Go Boots yet tous? Much improved.....less noise and more space.

    Good on ya Yarn!
