"Yeah I'm a little all over the shop, like those holy souvenirs from Knock, that come all the way from China."


"Time pulls a face when im next you, I hope the wind changes"

- Next To You

"I wanna shine in the eye of Orion but i drove my sole through the black hole"

- Rocky Took a Lover

"Climb into the attic to write me a classic, But it's not happening, It's just Christmas up here"

- My First Born For A Song

"I've been watching you fingers straddle the neck of your guitar since you said they'd buckle like the legs of a new born foal. But they're still standing, making those sweet mongrel chord shapes. Yea they're still standing, and you got the middle one raised to me"

- Lamposts

Josh Ritter:

"I'm still waitin for the whiskey to whisk me away/and i'm still waitin for the ashtray to lead me astray" - Other Side

Mick Flannery:

"I'm here to make money, wages plus tips, for pouring water into sinking ships"
