Looky Looky Everyone
And I quote
Hello all -
We hope this scribbled letter finds you all well. We figured it was about
time to gather everyone around the watering hole again to swap notes
concerning The Lost Dogs' tours, albums, recording news, and other odds and
ends.
Last summer, the men packed their bags and hit the road for what many fans
(as well as the band themselves) said was perhaps the greatest Lost Dogs
tour to date. Every night the band was taken aback by incredible audiences,
wonderful venues, and tons of laughter. The Dogs had a grand time, night
after night, playing their music for so many. Our email boxes filled up
with fans thanking the band for their songs and performances.
It's hard to believe that this summer is already just around the bend.
We're really excited about the next few months - a new album, two tours,
and a small fortune of gas in the van. The band keeps kicking around the
idea of doing this tour "plugged in" - amps, drum kit, rock and roll. The
new album is a return to form (so to speak). You can see a couple of jotted
down notes from Mike Roe, Terry Taylor and Derri Daugherty about the new
album below.
****
"On behalf of Terry, Derri, Steve and myself, we cannot wait to see and
play for all of you again, especially the songs from our wonderful new
album entitled "The Lost Cabin And The Mystery Trees". These eleven new
songs are a gift from us to you -- we have never stayed up later or worked
harder to bring you our very best. We think you'll agree with us that this
one is terrific -- another 'classic' along the lines of "Gift Horse" or
"Real Men Cry". Real drums (courtesy of Steve H.) Real bass (from the great
Tim Chandler) Loud electric guitars (mine and Derri's) Even some loud
obnoxious rock and roll (thanks to Terry this time!) Gorgeous melodies and
ballads (from all of us). Yes, it's a winner..." - Mike Roe
"Hindalong told me on the phone the other night that this may be the best
record he's ever participated on. 'Really?' I said with a laugh. I was
waiting for the punch line. It never came. I think he might be right... at
least it's right up there. I got teary-eyed listening to the rough mixes
when I got back home from Nashville - not because it was sad music, (in
fact, a couple of tunes are screamingly funny) but because some great
friends had come together and created a true thing of beauty. I hope you
guys like it. We worked hard to make it happen, but believe me when I tell
you that you're all worth it." - Terry Taylor
"I must say it's one of the best things we've ever recorded. Terry's
telling great stories and writing great songs, Steve, Mike and I also wrote
great songs for the cd. Mike is singing like an angel, I'm still singing
like a girl, Steve is drumming his butt off and keeping us on track. I've
had a great time making this cd with my closest friends. I hope we keep
doing this until we leave this world." - Derri Daugherty
