You guys are all talking about Dan's songwriting and comparing it to what he did with
Flatland Spider and the song 8. I think you need to remember that Flatland Spider was
from like 1992 or something and 8 was on the TSMAP 7 inch in probablly 1993. That's 6
years people. I'm positive he's had many other influences in his music since then
(Nusrat Fateh Ali Kahn for sure), and for all you know this "hard edge" that his
songwriting supposedly has that you guys keep talking about is probablly totally
changed if not gone. Stop assuming that if Dan did a solo album it would practically
be a re-release of the Flatland Spider 7". None of you know what it would sound like
for shit. Who would have expected Jeremy's solo project to sound like ROTFQ??? Just
please keep an open mind and remember that people's songwriting/musical influences can
change drastically over periods of time.
