Anybody else wondering what happened to the new MP3 the band apparently
promised themselves they would post on theymightbegiants.com by Wednesday
(according to Flans's latest e-missive)? Or am I missing something obvious?

Wow. It's just long enough to be the Cops intro. It feels a little Hill
Street Bluesish to me. Anyone else notice the similarity?

The link is dead now. Maybe they didn't want it to get out yet.

I've been sending them to people too, I think a few hours faster than
you have. Maybe we should figure out a way to only have one person do
it...I check the ng, like, every ten minutes, so I'm probably seeing the
requests sooner, so I think me doing it makes sense, but if you want to,
that's fine too.

Uh... wouldn't it be easier to just upload the thing somewhere?

I can do so if no one else wants to.

If I was going to host it, I'd host it on the server I'm running on my
computer.

America's Most Wanted theme? Everyone has described it as
instrumental, cop-sounding, and short...

Nah, I dont hear how its cop sounding at all. Its ok, not one of their best by
a long shot. I guess its called Rockfish? (or Rock Fish)... I think its
just...ok.

I host my website from my PC anyway so space isn't a problem, but my
ISP might not like the bandwidth usage:)

I can trade gigs and gigs of SHN's all day and they don't care but
they get anal about having a website even if the traffic is a tenth of
what I use otherwise.

Hallelujah you did it!

TMBG have talked about wanting to cover the Rockford files.

The song is called "Rockfish"

I have just downloaded the theme for the Rockford Files. Not exactly the same
but similar. wow the theme is waaay more interesting and TMBG-ish than
"Rockfish"... Alrighty
