Off the top of my head, I'm going to say 'Concerning the UFO Sighting Near Highland, Illinois'. That could change, though.

1. The Upper Peninsula
2. John Wayne Gacy, Jr

He is brilliant, but is growing a real reactionary repsonse ... his sweet baroque quirkiness doesn't wear well with some (67% of this board). I think he should disappear for two years... I am a big fan but the idea of buying a collections of outakes from Illinoise kind makes me nauseous.

I've heard from a lot of people that The Avalanche is really good, or otherwise I would agree with you. But if you've got the songs, put em out.

I'll go with John Wayne Gacy, Jr. for now, but that's mostly because I don't know many of the names.

there are some great songs on The Avalanche.

that said, i can't think of the title of my favorite song by him. it's that one off Seven Swans...you know, with the guitar and stuff.

Something Dashboard-Confessional-esque this way comes.

I like Seven Swans but everything else is woeful.

'To Be Alone With You'

Good idea, keep him busy and out of the recording studio.
