Waiting For No One: I wrote this one night sitting on my couch in Milwaukee. Most songs take a couple of days, or weeks to write. I never force the process, if it comes great, if it does not that's fine too. This song came to me and fast. It's about the balance between being frustrated with where you are and realizing you need to be thankful for what you got and receptive to it. Hanging in between those two places of frustration and receptivity is where this song lives. "You can stay, detained by your questions or come living with me" is in reference to our call to face this reality and fess up to it.
This was recorded with the band all facing each other playing, this is all live. When we got a good take, we listened back and found that everything was great, no need to overdub. This is Duane, the producer's favorite. Karl Dietel who played with The Samples has amazing keyboard work on this.
