My cue. I have a lot of problems with the original Damnations pre-release . . . but I am gonna reserve comment until the final release comes out (they reportedly did go back to the studio to brush it up). But anyways, count me in as skeptical re: the Damnations TX disc. They are talented as

Why Dan, you make P2 sound like the U.S. Congress g. I protest! I'm sure we'll have naysayers on the Damnations and that is indeed the P2 way. It sure is a good record, though. My prediction is that some of our more lyrics-oriented folk will find it less that stellar on that end. I'm digging
