One suggestion tho...maybe you can edit your first post with a little 'warning' about the use of the word that rhymes with duck that is used quite frequently...if kids are present, maybe use headphones or wait till they're not around. I wish I'd known before I listened at full volume with Chelsea 4 feet away on the couch. All is well, she's not scarred for life or anything, I just wish I'd known before Alan started yelling, "*uck, *uck, *uck"!

LOL. Good point. I reached for the volume button with record speed too!

Wow!  That's so fantastic!  They really are the best.  Thanks for posting, Tina! 

I can't wait to hear the new album -- although I have to admit, I'm a teeny bit nervous after hearing the studio version of Walk on the Moon and hearing the interviewer say this album is more orchestral and more pop.  I love, love WOTM, but not so crazy about all the pop effects in the studio version.  Kind of swallow up the song.  Still, I love every one of their albums, so I'm sure this one will be awesome.   

Thanks Tina, thanks so much!!

That's just so incredibly funny - thank you guys of letting us look behind the scenes!

I'm quite ashamed that just recently (yesterday to be precise) I heard myself complaining about the lack of podcasts in the last months. Well, this is so much cooler. I should have known that there was something in the pipeline ...

Cheers ... Christina

Good stuff, b'ys! I watched all 9 GBS clips they had--some of which I hadn't seen yet. True masters at work.........

Since when does Alan play the piano?

And I'm glad Sean's the bodhran player and not Bob... although I did get excited and a little bit curious when I saw him reach for it... and again when I saw Seannie with Bob's fiddle.  At least he got a good note out of it.  The only time I ever picked up a fiddle it screeched so horribly in protest that I had to put it back down quickly...

I bounce back and forth between disgust and amusement when I see what passes for entertainment when you're a guy.  And I'm disgusted that it amuses me.

(And that's Squeezy's recap of the first two segments.  Tune in tomorrow or something for the thrilling continuation...)

Unless he was just being silly (is Bob ever silly?) I think we may have found the one instrument Bob can't play. The bodhran.
