thinktankted Thanks for this great article. Puts where the band is now in a whole new light for us relative newcomers. It also explains to me where all of the emotion I feel coming from Harry Hood is coming from. I think that the goal true musicians strive towards is eliciting an emotional response from the listener. Bands that work together towards this goal seem to generate very loyal fanbases, Phish, The Dead, Widespread Panic, Allman Bros, etc...Sometimes the emotions they are trying to elicit are from point of view of the songwriter/characters in the song...but sometimes, if we're lucky, the artist(s) really just open up and pour what they're feeling into the music, and thus into the listener (onto if you're into the hose metaphor). I think JEMP really, really, feels good about Hood now, in a way they didn't know they did before the Coventry debacle and the 4.5 Phish-less years that followed.
