about

がんばれ! (GOOD LUCK!)

One evening, Thom texted me--

"Idea: lets make a split EP with our recent recordings, put it online with a pay-what-you-want and make it a fundraiser for helping Japan??? Came to me in a dream while sleeping on the megabus just now"

"Yeah dude, for sure! That would be awesome! We should definitely do that. We should put it out pronto too. The sooner the better."

So we did, and now it's ready, and

EVERY CENT WE MAKE IS GOING TO AMERICAN RED CROSS IN JAPAN.

In return, we'll provide these six tunes. Enjoy, people, and thanks very much.

Track Name: Adam Loomis - Good Luck! (feat. Lightnin' Joe Peterson)
I don't know a thing about you
but I sure want to
I do

I was born across the world
And now knowing I got blind spots
It's not
comforting


I'd like to learn
I'd like to share
Do you wanna play?


I'm sorry to hear that
Maybe we can help
I trust that two of you might make some tunes
for us if we were in hell

As far as I can tell
I already owe you so much


I'd like to learn
I'd like to share
At least
I wish you good luck!
Track Name: Thom Grathwol (TASRU) - The Easterlies
an american among the americans
a musician among the djs
is it culture if it wins ya street cred
or is it culture as long as it pays

i was banking on a ride on the easterlies
i think that im on the right track
there was nothing north of something and i left me there
now im trying to get me back

but my friend,
its a place that i can never go again
ill never go again

swept up
didn't touch my house
but my city's disappeared
exactly as we feared


wont you open up your mind just a little more
try to take in all that you see
though the colors may be faded
and your head a little jaded
you can tell what its like being me

when i saw you there at the aftershow
i didn't know what to say
until you tapped me on the shoulder with the butt of your knife
and told me to lead the way
Track Name: Adam Loomis - Curious
We're gonna go some day
Cause we said we would
And I know we could
If we wanted to
And I know I do

How about you?
How about you?

Don't save your breath
I'm excited too
Just like you
Let's see it all
And not call home til christmas

This ain't a test
I am serious
You can be curious with me
As far as I can see

This is real
Track Name: Adam Loomis - The Way You Do
Neon lights, and elephants
little cars, skies scraped off

Business suits, school uniforms,
Mt. Fuji, and sushi rolls

Yeah, there's something in the way you do
I wanna do too

Hayao Miyazaki Yoko Kanno,
Akira Kurosawa, Hattori Hanzo

A million little paintings
perfect scores
fine filmmaking
and samurai swords

Yeah, there's something in the way you do
I wanna do too
Track Name: Thom Grathwol (TASRU) - Chotto Matte
here we are
sun in our eyes
safe and sound

i'm being eaten by my own dream
i've paved my garden with a highway
have you built your walls high enough?
gimme a minute while i let it dry

do you really know how i feel about you?
i've got this funny feeling
