I was too enthralled by the original line in my sig to realize that the earlier line from the song fit this place better…
Guess there aren’t many Soul Coughing fans out there?
“Rolling with the dopes you know. Rolling with the wrong gun on you”
“I dream that she aims to be the bloom upon my misery”
Sorry…I’ve never heard of them…but then that’s not unusual. I’m not up on the groups of today.

Yeah, I like Soul Coughing–I don’t know much of theirs, but what I’ve heard, I like.
Super Bon Bon, and Circles are the two songs I’m most familiar with.
Huge soul coughing fan here. Well, I’m not huge, rather average sized actually, but I really like them.

She’s gone,
Gone gone

I dig soul coughing.
Although they lost me on El Oso, Ruby Vroom is a classic.
Well, I’ve heard of Soul Coughing but don’t really know their work. Recently I discovered Sonia Dada and have been playing that a LOT,
larry
I like Soul Coughing myself, and am less familiar with El Oso than their earlier stuff. I got into them whilst living in Minneapolis, and in the liner notes for Irresistible Bliss they thank Rev 105 which was the radio station that gave them alot of play there. In fact the band has sold about 40%(IIRC) of their albums in Minnesota.

Ok Nerd, I got it… it’s on Ruby Vroom. I got the albums out of order, IB then EO then RV…
“Rolling with the dopes you know. Rolling with the wrong gun on you”
“I dream that she aims to be the bloom upon my misery”
Yep. Not surprisingly, it’s “Mr. Bitterness” 
I like El Oso the best, i think. Mostly 'cause it kicks ass for music to drive to.
(Did you know that it takes about 11 CD’s to drive from Houston to Atlanta, and about 9 to get back? If Soul Coughing features prominently)
Though “Screenwriter’s Blues” is great for late late night cruising.
“It’s 5am, and you’re listening…
To Los Angeles.”
I only know what I’ve heard on the radio. I didn’t care for “Circles” too much, but “Su[er Bon-Bon” was great. Move aside, and let the man go through…
An infinite number of rednecks in an infinite number of pickup trucks shooting an infinite number of shotguns at an infinite number of road signs will eventually produce all the world’s great works of literature in Braille.
Ok, I typed a bunch of stuff here. Then my browser crashed. Crap.
Basically I was saying that it’s good to talk to people that at least know of this band.
The propellerheads remixed Super Bon Bon and it was really cool. Then I heard the original and was only disappointed that the original wasn’t as fast.
Super Bon Bon is a featured track in PSX’s Gran Turismo 2. I drive best when that’s the song I drive to.

Lots of good info, especially the background to Super Bon Bon. I’m waiting for the backgrounds for El Oso.
