Cool!~   I'll be sure to give a listen, asap, since they mixed  some older 
with the new and due to unreal traffic I missed the beginning of the  MUF 
show.  
 
I agree about the acoustics and the respect there..nobody talks over the  
softer songs so it's a pleasure getting to hear them without inebriated bar  
patrons insisting on yelling over the music...at times at Terra I was 
becoming a  bit frustrated by the level of crowd noise.  
 
Your gig showcases the band at their best....I've always enjoyed the  
Habitat show the most out of every show Jason and New Blood  play. 
 
I did already mention (in my post to Michael) that Broken Toy is my  2nd 
favourite song on the album...or, since it's sung by Jason, actually my  
favourite song, while Enlightenment is my favourite instrumental....but then  
everything is so good, innovative and light years ahead of what anyone else is  
doing...the entire album is choice. It's great to hear new songs sung by  
Shawn and Ed and Todd's 'Pterodactyl' doesn't even belong in this galaxy  
<G>. 
 
I bought 3 (count 'em) THREE copies of the CD at Terra. Two are being  
distributed as gifts to people who will be blown away,and who won't actually  
believe that I'd enjoy or listen to music this cool.
 
Thanks for all the work you do to record the Band, Garry...and it must feel 
 especially good to have been the only 'guest harpist' called up on Sunday. 
  Being onstage with Jason Ricci and New Blood must be a mind-blowing  
experience....something only most players can only dream about...(and I have the 
 photos to prove it) ;)

both are up, as well as last  friday's show from washington, dc:

MUF:  http://www.archive.org/details/jrnb2009-04-19.flac16
Terra:  http://www.archive.org/details/jrnb2009-04-22.flac16

i like the MUF  "enlightement" best.  the acoustics are great, and
there's no bar  noise.

while you're there, check out the buckweed song, "Ptryptophan  Pterodactyl",
or "broken toy" or "life of denial" or "holler for craig  lawler", all 
from the new album.
definitely not "same old".

and if  you like what you hear, pick up a copy of the new album,
"done with the  devil".  aside from being a great album, with great
versions of these  and other songs, these guys really deserve our support.

my personal  favorite is the title track, "done with the devil".  great  
song,
with awesome  lyrics.
