"Thanks for the info, though I should have googled to save you the work (sorry about that)." No sweat... I'd already done the research last week. I had so many notes written down for this review... It literally took me 5-7 days to write it.



"I appreciate you reviewing this a lot." No probs. It's why we are here. Yourself included, as you've put me on to 1 or 2 bands yourself.

Hehehehe... It's tough for me to say, but, but, but Jonathan Boulet > Rick Allen.



I know you're in love with the young man though.

Haha. I hope you've washed it since.



So... Since (I think) you have rated them both the same, do you prefer this or Boulet's solo LP (if you had to pick one)?

I prefer this, but both were amazing live. Saw them both in one day at Come Together.

Good to hear DavID... I had this feeling that you were going to say the JB solo LP.



And yeah, I could imagine that especially Parades would be great live. JB solo would also be fascinating, depending on how much help he got on stage. Or is he like a one-man band?



Well Dev, it's my album of the year thus far... But it's not a 5... & (more importantly) I didn't use any quotes in this review. LOL.

He has a six-piece band when he plays live. Parades are a six, occasionally seven, piece. I'm seeing them twice next month.

Hmmm, that surprises me re: JB solo. I had this mental picture of the Bob Dylan harmonica & all. I thought he would really have a raw live show.



I've seen footage of Parades live. Sound awesome. I missed them in Melbourne about 2 weeks ago. (Insert "they only have 1 album" joke here).

You WILL see them live before the end of the year otherwise you are dead to me.



Definitely not Dylan-esque. The album is so boppy! It's got a lot of all-in vocals and percussion and such.

Oh, hardy har har Tom. I'm yet to see anyone else give this album a low rating. In fact, let's take a look at our objectivity %. Well, there you go, I'm 83% & your 80%.



Come on DavID, give me a little more time than that. They may not be back in Melbourne this year. I'm hoping they'll be at BDO.



I know it's not Dylanesque... You know I've heard & rated it... It was just the one-man band mental picture I had.

You know I'm only being facetious Davey! Although on a serious note, you do like to build the hyperbole by your own admission, which isn't necessarily a bad thing by the way. I'll check this out as soon as I can, my internet has been slowed down because I've been downloading too much at the moment.

"You know I'm only being facetious Davey!" My facetious radar has been slowed down because I've been downloading too much at the moment... Yeah, I know you were mate. And I do like to build the 'bole... But I hope I don't do it too much & only when warranted. I look forward to hearing what you think of this... But will be disappointed if you come back with 4.5 less two (2) points.



"i have a feeling i will like this." Yeah, you should Dougie... Although, I've been wrong about some of your ratings of late. The days of you being my mysterious alter ego are well & truly gone. Ahh, those were good times.
