New Shows! Baltimore, Philly, Cleveland!
Hi Everybody!

Operator Dot here with some information for your perusal. The Johns are super-busy in the studio this week, but I want to make sure you all know about the upcoming shows and the free MP3s that await you at http://www.tmbg.com/freeTunes.html . Also on http://www.tmbg.com/froMain.html are brand-new Q&As for your enjoyment.


And check this totally out - a supercool fan-created video for Bloodmobile, TMBG's song written for the Franklin Institute's famous heart-n-blood exhibit. At first we thought it was the actual video from the exhibit, but shortly we found otherwise. With the kind permission of the creator, I give you this link:

Thanks, Dave!

See you all at the shows!

Love,

Operator Dot

Why couldn't they listen to their parents' TMBG? Or then again, why couldn't their parents listen to their kids' TMBG? What's with the segregation?

L: One of the reasons we got into kids' music is that parents had been playing our "adult" records for their kids, much of which they seemed to think was appropriate. However there's a raft of topics that we get into that I think are either over the kids' heads (divorce, alienation), uninteresting (midlife worries, obscure historical figures), or totally inappropriate (substance abuse, violent death, Edith Head).
