I'd say between 4-6 pm...and it's eastern daylight time.  ;D

Yep, I listened to him, it was short but sweet (guess I love when Eric speaks ;) )

He didn't say much more than what was already said.
IMPORTANT FACT, You are getting a HUGE July/August tour

Other topics
He and the radio guy agreed "Take a load off" is a killer track
"The Road" is a dreppresing movie
He talked about food but I don't understand when Amercians talk about food ;D
He was also asked about the way the album was recorded, he said the exact same thing that he said here: viewtopic.php?f=1&t=5615
He spent 12 hours behind his drums one day for this record
And his leather drum sit is too uncomfortable that he has to wear some kind of diaper

Remember I'm not an English speaker, so I probably missed some things, plus the ones I don't remember  ;)

Finally, a mention of "Take a Load Off"! I was wondering when we would hear anything about this song. Glad to hear it is a killer tune. This song always intrigued me because it was one of the only tunes that hadn't really been mentioned on any front. Coooool!!! I want to rock it out!!

The radio in CT had Jim Koplick (promoter) on this morning and he said STP will be playing at Mohegan Sun in CT in the fall.  The reason they did not play there in the spring is because they did not want to do arenas in the spring tour (not sure why).  So, at the very least you have that.

Forgot to mention, he also said all the tunes in this record are new tunes, they didn't use old stuff

Wow, how did the 'radio guy' hear this track?  I wonder if Eric brought a copy of the album to play for a few people at the station or something.
I’m here to bleed for all the lust and lonely nights.
