\m/ THEREMIN SOLO!!! WOO!!! \m/
I thought I'd set the post-by-phone number in my address book, but sadly it wasn't there and so y'all don't get to share the joy of listening to it.
Honestly? I dislike the theremin. A lot. I can tolerate it in the small quantities DeVotchKa used it, but Norfolk and Western went more than a little overboard with it. I liked these guys, but I thought that once or twice they went kind of off the rails (like the extremely enthusiastic theremin solo mentioned above). The sound took a little while to get straightened out, which didn't help either. DeVotchKa was fabulous, of course, and I didn't even have to go to Boulder to see them. Yay!
