The Capitol Steps just sent me their latest CD "Papa's Got a Brand New Baghdad." Other songs include 'Ain't No Surplus, Now It's gone,' 'I Wish I Was On Oxycontin,' and 'SuperCaliforniaRecallFreakShowWasAtrocious.'

3. They like to party too

We sponsor their appearance in Ann Arbor every summer (July 4). They are fun to party with too.

5. I've seen them there several times over the years

and have several tapes. I've never been able to party with them, that's cool!

6. God, I love them

I saw them live, they were really awesome.

7. 'SuperCaliforniaRecallFreakShowWasAtrocious.'

LOL! LOL! LOL!

I'd love to hear that. :D

I always hear them on NPR twice a year, not nearly enough. One of my true regrets about moving away from DC was not getting to see them live before I left.

8. Harvard Square

i had seen them last august at Sanders Theatre in Harvard Square and went again a couple of weeks ago ...

they were good the first time ... the second time, i was really disappointed ... it seemed like about 80% or more of their material was the same ... you would think with all that's going on in the world they would have plenty of raw material to work with ...

on a brighter note, i do like that "lirty dords" stuff they do where they switch the first letters of words in a sentence ... it led to some fretty punny stuff ...

9. I was at that show a few weeks ago in Harvard Square

I really enjoyed it, but I'd never seen them before so repeated material was a moot point in my case.
