I like the stay frosty clip best of the stuff that's come out so far...the acoustic/bluesy intro makes me thing of Take Your Whiskey Home which was always a personal fave and it sounds like they're having fun with it. Dave needs better fitting dentures though - he's got that new denture whistle/lisp goin on in Frosty clip and the interview that HG linked to!

Quite like it. Kind of Ice Cream Man meets Led Zeppelin III

Some of those snippets sound great! -which leads to the obvious question: Why Tattoo?

Maybe the only track that's pop enough ( i.e. has keyboards) to get airplay? The rest seems to be mostly hi octane guitar goodness which is great for the true fans, but would be harder to get played.

Perhaps. Not the first time a label has said 'we need a single'.

Everything else I've heard has been pretty stellar.

It's pretty damn shortsighted, then. Tattoo was too much old-guys-reliving-past-glory in the video.

maybe the video was meant to represent a bunch of old guys going back to where it all started??
