    been a fan for a little while now...like them a lot.
    He is alive but feels absolutely nothing.
    So is he?
    When he was six he believed that the moon overhead followed him.
    By nine he had deciphered the illusion trading magic for fact.
    No tradebacks...
    So this is what it's like to be an adult
    If he only knew now what he knew then...

    I love Gomez! I just wish they'd come to south Florida, but I doubt it.
    Pick up my debut novel here on amazon: Jonny Bails Floatin (in paperback) (also available on Kindle for $2.99)

    I got their latest album recently and its well worth getting. Great band
  • elmerelmer Posts: 1,683
    I was unaware that they were still around, Bring it On I really got into at the time. I heard the following album and was less than impressed, actually I was dissatisfied enough to have forgotten them. Have on occasion dug out their debut though

    Gomez is my second favorite band. The diversity of their catalog is just mind blowing to me.

    I just caught Ian Ball solo acoustic last week at the Hotel Cafe in Hollywood.
    I was guite impressed with the performance. here are the songs that i remember:

    Hanoe Beach
    How We Operate
    Cry On Demand
    Shot Shot
    Royalty
    Flavors!
    Cover tune (lyrics were about 1891 - anyone?)
    Whippin Piccadily
    In Our Gun!!

    sweet sweet set!
    “I know this song so well, I can smoke a cigarette, have a drink, brush my teeth, take a shit, and mow the lawn while singing it. But I'll only be doing a couple of those things during this version.”
