Season Two of the RoadCasts continues with a discussion of 'One Leg at a Time', the first song on our upcoming debut album. We talk about band news, including the Aug. 25 album release show, and blather on on various other topics. We also introduce our first non-Haiku Rd. music track, highlighting one of our favorite local bands: World Class Thugs. We introduce a new Arrested Development-inspired feature, too!

Finally, we begin Season Two of the Haiku Roadcasts! And of course that means two things. One, we've finished our debut album! And second, it means it's time for some changes in the Roadcast format. We've ditched a lot of our side commentary (including the controversial Beercasts) and opted for a shorter, leaner all-music podcast. Coming up this season, we'll talk about each of the songs on the album, how it got written, how it got recorded ... all those sorts of things. First up: Take Me Out.

This time around, it is Richard's turn to look like a fool! (Okay, not much different than any other time ...) Also, Erik kicks it off with a recap the latest performances, Chris reads some "listener-mail," Richard reads a passage from a real nail-biter of a reference/instructional book, and -- big shocker -- we talk beer (Hobgoblin Ale, Tetley's Ale and Fishtail I.P.A. -- not to metion some ideas on the origin of I.P.A.). BTW, Erik is very proud of this week's sound FX.

To start things off, we make Erik look like a fool! Then, we look back at Bands on Grand in the rain and look forward to our upcoming shows. We also talk about Richard's grand scheme for bird flu masks, and beer (Spaten Oktoberfest Ur-Maerzen, Kona Fire Rock Pale Ale and Sierra Nevada's 2006 I.P.A.), then bring back our celebrity ImpersaGuest(tm) segment, talking with Paul Reubens from beyond the grave. He keeps insisting he's not dead, but we know better!

This week: Join us for strange things coming from Richard's hind end, regional oneupsmanship, more Bands on Grand ... and we introduce SHEEP to the podcast!

How do we do it? We don't know; we just do it. This week's beers are Samuel Adams Brown Ale, Pyramid Ale Snow Cap (Seasonal) and Grolsch Lager. And we talk about them. A lot. Also, jittery for Bands on Grand, Erik's Grand Canyon, some mumbling, and ... a special treat!

Into the breach again, dear friends! Highlights this week include: Pestilent soup, Dick Cheney's itchy trigger finger, Chris speaking in tongues!

We talk about the strange and distrubing relationship between chilis and beer, editorial cartoons and free speech, and Richard Gets Up To Pee. Erik is sick, with strange things coming out of his ears. And his mouth.
