So I've been falling for Apostle of Hustle... their stuff is amazing, and when I saw that they did Cheap Like Sebastien in studio with you guys, I practically lost all verbal control (the swear words came fast and loose!). Fuckin' awesome. One of my favorite albums of 2007!

[JVH (f/k/a Bob Dubilina)]

Yeah, Cheap Like Sebastien was all thanks to Ms. Buchwildere. The band said they rarely play it live because it's so hard to pull off, but she countered that bullshit excuse with the sad kitty eyes, so they had to oblige. It's an incredible live track, definitely one of our best from Season 15. (As far as other favorites from S15, may I also recommend Todd Martin's Spinning, Ed Pettersen's June 1945 or anything by Kate Voegele?)

As for the album . . . I'm sad to say that I just can't bring myself to listen to it anymore. It's an impressive album, to be sure. But after seeing and hearing what these guys can do live on four separate occasions, I can't understand why their energy and playfulness didn't transfer over as much into their studio recordings.

That said, I don't care if you have to beg, borrow, steal or kill. Make sure you see AoH live.
