    Hummus played over the PA just as the lights went down in Wellington in 1998 IIRC. Opened with Long Road Brain of J and DTE. Helluva start.

    Why is there 'Writers Block' at the end of binaural when there were five other songs with complete lyrics that didn't make the album only to be officially released four years later?


    It was just tacked on as a joke. They weren't actually interested in adding more songs to the main body of that album. Some of those B-sides might have been better choices than what ended up on the album, but "Writer's Block" didn't keep them from being on the album.
    I gather speed from you fucking with me.

    I think I did read somewhere though that Ed was suffering from writer’s block during the sessions. Maybe I read it in the PJ20 book or possibly
    documented somewhere else!?
