Trapped on Turnpikes (not currently but in the past tense, usually in the tour sense)

So we have finished the tape and it has been at the manufacturer for some time now. After having an awkward conversation with the company about concerns with them being offended I had concerns, the tape will take one million more years to finish. In a non-hyperbolic length of time: probably a month. So here is yet another song given to you as a temporary solution to not having a tape that was supposed to be released months ago. So in a world where everything is everybody else's fault I can honestly say that if I finished the tape a month earlier it would have maybe arrived today. But I think I would need a flux-capacitor for that. Possibly a delorian. No more babbling from me, here's a song about being trapped on the New Jersey Turnpike after an always awesome time at Asbury Lanes in Asbury Park............................

1991 oh what a time. i got nirvana nevermind. all those words i didnt understand. but i finally get it now that i'm a man.

(1)he dont get the songs but he likes to sing along. 

(2)she dont wanna breed but thats not what she means. 

(3)taking your drugs is like taking your religion. 

(4)when he's smelling him he's really smelling

her, she's cheating. 

i got it. took 20 years to understand the crazy words from a crazy man that i never met but i thought i knew well. i'm glad nirvana cd's were the ones i didn't sell. 

(5)he got so high he scratched til he bled. 

(6)me and my friends really are our own tribe. 

(7)look outside nature really is a whore. 

and the back of the album is diseased vaginas.

 and i had forgotten about endless nameless.

(8)....what is endless nameless?

 eight questions. no mail, no drawing, just nirvana knowledge.

New Leeves Demos Before New Tape

Before the tape come out or while it's out and you don't have a tape player.....
Here our for rough-mix-demos recorded by Chris Dilday in Nashville while on tour with Big Attack! Enjoy........

Available from BANDCAMP


We pull into Nashville and a slight drizzle falls. We exit the van and stand in the rain and it feels good. 1: because we're out of the van, and 2: because we are outside a fancy studio on Music Row and we have the entire studio to ourselves all day long. (It was some holiday.) So 5 Leeves songs later and 3 Big Attack songs later Chris rushes to get some mixes for us to take home and prove that this day actually existed before he goes home to his slighly-newish baby daughter. We go to a cheap motel. And that was Nashville. Except for playing at Foobar and meeting hoodlums in the back alley with Doug and ending up with their knife. I forget the details....
