they also sing on one of the songs on christine's album _good_thing_
he_can't_read_my_mind_, but i can't recall which song it is - i remember
seeing their name in the credits though...i *think* it's "mysterious
woman" - a song spoofing suzanne vea in a friendly sorta way...

speaking of whom, i managed to finagle the promosingle for suzanne's
upcoming record, _days_of_open_hand_. the single is called "book of 
dreams" and follows the trend towards a unified band sound that she
began with _solitude_standing_. the song is pretty good, but i wish she'd
go back to the old single guitar sound...

i think the album is supposed to be released sometime around mid-month.
