It is with great pleasure that my programmed drum track has been replaced by Ange who put his talent, emotion and love into this. His more than two cents is really appreciated. Ange, welcome to the project! 

I also wish to thank my great friend, songwriter, and musician Glenn Arpino for graciously taking his time to record this in The Womb.

Please let us know what you think of Ange's drums. Thanks my musical friends!!

 A song about the sheep-like nature of the general public and the  increasing herding instincts due to the interests of others. 

TCP welcomes the debut of Reid Tobias, my son, on bass. And Glenn Liljeblad is back with his lead guitar in fine form once again.

Players

• Henry Tarnecky - vocals


• Reid Tobias - bass


• Glenn Liljeblad - lead guitar


• Glenn Arpino - mellotron


• Blake Tobias - keyboards, rhythm guitar, song, drum programming

The sheep are a large flock in June 2004 in Causs Noir, Cevennes, France. They are wearing bells (as sheep often do) so they can be located easier should they stray.

Consider this:
Our financial records and transactions are constantly monitored, our medical records are no longer private, cameras are popping up like weeds to record events all over the US and EU, cell phones are easy to track by government GPS applications, and soon the US national ID system (Real ID) will be able track your whereabouts based on your driver's license. Virtually all email and any type of phone calls are illegally monitored most anywhere in most places in the world automatically. These are just some of the facts, not fiction. It is not paranoia or delusion. It is a reality many don't know or won't think about. Research it anywhere you can or at the TCP web site.

UPDATE: December 5, 2007

A new version of the song was put up and Bri-an was the first to review that. Thanks Bri!! This mix comes closer to how we'd' like the drums but of course nothing's perfect, especially when it comes to my sound engineering talent. We'll let this version sit for awhile mostly because it's pretty close and at the same time I'm getting sick of messing with it. ~Blake  

ORIGINAL POST 

Just finished the last version of We Elect with the addition of Gary Folchi's tracking. However, the posted mix must be redone as there are various technical difficulties including a less than stellar engineering job on my part. Hmmm, sometimes I'm just too fast at pulling the trigger. My apologies, mostly to Gary - as this version just isn't what it should be.
