I am caught tumbling earthwards, I am falling from the sky I landed on the sidewalk, caught a leaf in my eye Pick myself up, keep on moving, gotta walk on down the line I'm going to meet the Devil on a clear autumn night Got the rush of adventure, a hint of fear of hell I'm like the Goodman Brown, I'm under the Devil's spell The one I whisper to myself alone under lamplight Says I'm gonna meet the Devil on a night like tonight Got no heaven above me, got no faith down below Got no world around me, even doubt I got a soul I just know I've got a body and it's walkin' down the line It's going to meet the Devil on a clear autumn night When I sing I look skywards like the answer's up there I don't believe it is although it could be in the air Like a leaf tumbling earthward from dead branches in the sky Reaching down to grab me and carry me to the Devil tonight Got the rush of adventure, a hint of fear of hell I'm like the Goodman Brown, I'm under the Devil's spell But if I cannot make it, if the walk proves too far I'll conjure up the image of a demon with my guitar ------ One was tame, one was wild Brothers Cain and Able style But I wasn't able, I wasn't Able And I sure as hell weren't Cain Look so different in that picture One is truth, one is fiction Versions of each other or versions of the truth * Find yourself in the eyes of your brothers Find your face in the kind of another Look so different in that picture One is truth, one is fiction One was tame, one was wild Brothers Cain and Able style But I wasn't Able and I wasn't Cain Or my brother under a different name One lived east, one lived west Tattoos cover the other's chest And one was drunk, the other stoned But neither was himself anymore * One lived east, one lived west Tattoos cover the other's chest And one lived in peace, one lived in war Neither knew what the hell the other did the other - for Different times, different conclusions Different lives, different solutions

about

Recorded live on an answering machine at the benefit for Chris Rigsbee. There is a fair amount of crowd noise on the recording but I think it's worth a listen.

Team Grease, Leo Brill, Joey Todd and Adrian Aardvark also performed.

A pretty unique setlist. This is the only time I've played either of the covers live, as well as the song Devil. I think this is also the first time I played Brothers out.

The tape cuts out when Painting is almost over.
