1) One of your tweets mentioned some AFRICAMZUNGUVIBRATIONS. Did I miss this on hawaiii?
2) While you guys have certainly changed a lot from Howe Sounds/Taking Abalonia, you still have that classic Said the Whale sound that I love listening to. On your previous albums, I've really enjoyed what I've deemed to be Canadian Folk music (This City's a Mess, Black Day in December, Out on the Shield, Big Sky, MN, etc). I really love the stories that get told in those songs, but hawaiii didn't really include anything like that. So! What kind of things inspired you guys to write hawaiii, and how were those things a bit different than previous albums?
3) How hard does a guy have to party in the front row of your show in Saskatoon in order for you guys to collectively say, "This guy needs to be partying just as hard up on the stage for one song"?
4) Will you pay the money I'm going to have to owe my landlord due to noise complaints from listening to Helpless Son too loudly when the vinyl arrives?
Loved the album and looking forward to seeing you in November.
