yeah I know, I was debating whether these songs were supposed to be completely acoustic or "more acoustic than most SP songs".

Hey I like those shrill screaming menstruating drunk cokewhores, particularly the one who goes "America baby! Ameerica!" at the start of To Sheila... actually scratch that, they're all dicks who spoil a great acoustic set.

Agreed about Cafe De La Danse. Love Lies In Ruins is sublime.
