Gone Daddy Gone
(Originally by Violent Femmes)

APPEARS ON:
Live at Howler's EP (2007)*
Cover Like Tan (2008)

Notes:
I always like this song. It's got that cool desperation slowly creeping up with every verse where it's clear the vocalist is getting more and more erratic. I tried to pull that element out a little more in my psuedo Tom Waits voice. When we performed it live, we'd usually lead in with few bars of "In Heaven" from David Lynch's Eraserhead just to see if anyone knew that song (which if they did, they knew it as the Pixies cover). It was originally supposed to be on the Howlers EP but I ended up clipping the mic so it's only a secret track on the 25 limited edition hard copies. In the studio cut, we added in some hand claps, tamborine, and a cowbell, as well as using 2 guitars tuned down to Db playing contrary single note lines.
