    One of many songs that's better on the disc than live.
    Sorry...Marker live blows!

    Marker in the Sand is one of my very favorites. A great spiritual that doesn't rely the preachiness or dogma of any particular religion. It's some kind of universal church music to me. The live version on Letterman is one of my favorite YouTube videos.

    Is there a "bad" song on this album?

    Big Wave

    YMMV, of course.
    Big Wave is good song when I am stoned, bad is kind of harsh don't you think?
    I'll take a few bong hits and get back to you on that.

    I thought the reason for this song was to open people's eyes to why the wars are stupid, and just because it is a Democrat ####ing things up now, and it was a Republican 6-7 years ago when the song was written, doesn't mean the song shouldn't be played, because we still need our servicemen and women home, just as we did then, I hardly call this a political song, THIS IS A ####ING MORAL SONG!

    makes me sad that they would only play it 4 times in the last 5 years, it is a much better song than that
