about

OK, not truly solo acoustic; but it's a lot of fun, and it's part of what I do solo, as well, even if it doesn't have Chris's nifty gypsy guitar lead. Recorded January 24th, 2012 at Two Dogs Begging Studios, Phoenix, AZ

lyrics

Do you wanna get spooky?
Do you wanna get weird?
Do you wanna be cra-a-a-a-zy,
Just as they feared?

Do you wanna get spooky?
Do you wanna be feared?
Do you wanna be cra-a-a-a-zy,
Dead bugs in your beard...

Well if I told you once,
I never told you at all,
You can have your fun, son
Givin that devil a call
Givin that devil a call
Givin that devil a call.


Is your heart in shackles
Is your mind in chains
Has your imagination
Been indelibly strained

Is your heart in Dallas
Is your mind in Spain
Are your infatuations
Better left unexplained

Well, if I told you once
I'll never tell you again
It won't be no fun, son
Bein that devil's best friend
Bein that devil's best friend
Bein that devil's best friend


Well, I used to be lazy
That's what I heared
It used to make me cra-a-a-a-zy,
Used to make me afeared

Well I used to be lazy
Oh, but now it's so clear
Now you couldn't pa-a-a-ay me
Not to disappear

Well if I told you once
I never told you at all
You can have your fun, son
Pitchin that ball at the wall,
Pitchin that ball at the wall,
Pitchin that ball at the wall,
Pitchin that ball at the wall.

about

Matt Miller, Baritone Guitarist & Singer/Songwriter Flagstaff, Arizona

Baritone guitar is tuned between a guitar and a bass (B E A D F# B). Extremely versatile, full, and very funky. Given its excellent qualities, it is surprisingly uncommon.

I "live loop", which lets me improvise on alto sax, flute, and guitar. Strong jazz and funk influences, but truly a wide variety. Even shit-kicking country at times. The Muse, she speaks; I hear.
