I feel like I missed something.
I skipped into the song a little and heard "Honey honey honey honey honey honey honey" while a cowboy gyrated his hips around a bass. Then I closed the window. I feel like I should clear my browser history.

I was fortunate enough to see them last november right up front. The album actually sounds like crap when you compare it to what those guys were doing live...So much harder and looser.
