It'd be sweet if I could just download the album and paypal you 5 bucks or something. But I've yet to hear the new album, and I'm down for purchasing it the old fashioned way. can't wait to hear it.

Thanks for all the help guys, I've been working on it for the last month or whenever I posted this thread. Its sounding better for sure. I'm looking into getting an Ibanez G series this summer. I know I don't *need* it, but I think its a bit more appropriate for the kind of music I want to...

After seeing Barlow for the first time when he returned at Powerfest last week, I'd have to say he is easily my favorite vocalist right now. Mike is right up there with him though.
