After their Fall 2002 whirlwind tour supporting their book of collaborative poems, Nice Hat. Thanks, these acclaimed poets return with a collection of the finest new poems created live as they rambled high and low. Covering such topics as hillbillies, baseball, capitalism, paradise, fruit, spy satellites, and more, the CD is an uproarious and continually surprising audio record of two vivid imaginations working overtime for audiences in no less than 19 states.
