Yes they are really terrific. We saw them last year at The Ryman and after the show when we went over to Tootsies for a beer, guess who was there! Only a couple people recognized them; they looked great, considering they had played a show for 2-1/2 hours. Nice people too.


You Lucky Duck.  I wish that I had been there too!

Well I think, people who don't like this tune basically don't like guitar and prefer computers. I'm sure they also don't like vegetables.
 

Perhaps you should go and see someone about your computerphobia.

Could anyone enlighten me about what the PPA refers to in the title of this song? Or is it just meant to be onomatopoeic, like some Austin Powers interjection? Somehow the Perennial Plant Association or the Punjab Police Academy didn't seem to fit.

I disagree. Yes, their style attracts the ear but on extended listening you realize that's all they intended, that their ideas are not new or unique. Wile not unpleasant it gets pretty boring.

I picked this up partway through and thought they were doing variations on the Tetris theme song.

I have to agree! I have come to recognize their talents and dont have to run to the squeezebox to see how I'm enjoying so.

Agree completely. If you see their YouTube videos, they are even more amazing "in person" because they are so talented but approachable. I dream of being at one of their early intimate concerts and would really like to see them live now.

Far from cheesy, this is incredible talent and I'd love to see them live sometime. Their YouTube vids captivate me.

The picture on the alblum cover is far better than the song (if comparing "apples to oranges" that is).

I bought the album based on what I'd heard at RP, and it's been a regular in my car stereo ever since.  It's pretty consistent throughout, I think.
