That would explain the consistent headaches.  You bastard!

ps:  got about half the mp3's downloaded (thank youthankyou thank you) and 
it's really something -especially track 5. It kinda picks up where "The 
Electric End" left off, except these guys can actually play, which is in and 
of itself something new to the Jandek canon.  But these guys are 
complimentary, at least on what I've heard, and my greatest fear was that 
they'd leave him in the dust.

Also want to say that I've been jamming out (uh, no that's not the word for 
it) to a couple of Richard Youngs albums the last two days and really dig it.  
Also thought it interesting that J stopped to see Six Organs of Admittance.  
Between the two artists, there is a hint of where Jandek may go next. Curious 
to see what he does with it.  Turns out he knows a little bit about modern  
music after all.
