Chuck Mead Quotations

Mark's a great singer and great performer and songwriter. He took over the vocals and harmony singing with me.

We like to throw it around, that's for sure.

There were 10 or 12 of us and four bands.

It was a weird recording process for us because it was so disjointed. Donnie was off playing with Dylan. Shaw was in Arizona. That just left Mark and me up here. So the record has kind of a different feel for us. Playing lead guitar again changed the dynamic a bit, too. But that was great. It was time to change things up.

It was a different way of making a record. We basically all met in Athens, Georgia, to make this record. A lot of these songs, nobody had ever heard, and we just kind of put them together right there. We were in band camp or something.

In the past we had it all preordained in our heads, but this time we went in there winging it, and I think it came out really good that way.
