    They came through Cincinnati in 1997 -- and we happened to meet the A&R guy for Epic at the venue, and were able to do a meet & greet with the band. Everyone who was there made a beeline toward Stone, I went to the Shawn and the others. 

    I said, "do you all mind signing something for me?" and I pulled out a copy of The Family by Satchel -- Shawn, Regan, and Mike said no one on the tour had done that, and they were happy to sign it. 

    Shawn was working on some new solo material with Dave Abbruzzese when he passed. I would have loved to had heard more from those sessions. Word was they had some BRAD material in the can, but I've not heard if it will ever see the light of day. Additionally, about a year ago there was talk of reissuing both Satchel and BRAD material on vinyl -- but I'm assuming that is not happening since there's been no word in over a year.
    Shawn smith is also on this album(does backing vocals). Ty Willman of Green Apple Quickstep sings and Regan Hagar is on drums. Song 9 has a lot of Shawn on it. F!res is the band. Check it out came out last November.

    I recall when it came out not even being interested, not buying it etc.  Then 10 years later finally giving in and taking a listen I fell in love with Shame, had to search long and hard for a CD of it, eventually vinyl.  Buttercup...man I love Shame.  Rockstar into We....brilliant.  Screen, good News....I really learned to appreciate Shawn.  Really got me back into Temple as well.  I think this album was my Stone Gossard is a rock God album

    I love playing Buttercup on my guitar. Such beautiful notes and when it kicks into that full chord, man. Just so good!

    I don't remember off the top of my head. I learned it by playing along.

    I'm pretty sue that's the tab I used back in the day to learn it, but it may be another version. Either way, it's a good start. I learned how to plya most of that album just by playing along.

    the shame recording is slightly sharp, something to remember if you're wondering why it sounds a tad off while you're jamming with the tunes.

    i always play with the live recordings or the awesome itunes session they did in 2010. great band with easy and fun songs!

    Does anyone know why "Welcome to Discovery Park" is not available on Apple Music with the other Brad cds?

    No idea, but I have noticed that their catalog management is a bit odd. Sometime, nothing is available on Spotify or just one album...or the whole catalog. If you need the mp3's, just shoot me a pm and I can email them to you when I get home tonight.
