Question
Hey, im a huge dave fan and ive come across songs that ive never heard before that ive just listened to recently such as cigarrete lit,blue water baboon farm andheathcliffs Haiku Warriors. I was wondering where these songs have come from because i havent seen them on any of their CD's

Answer
Hi Zak,
Glad to hear about you discovering these great songs!  They're not on any of the band's CDs, because they're songs that Dave and the band wrote and never recorded.  Any recordings you've heard of these songs strictly come from concerts (although I believe Cigarette Lit was an unreleased B-side to Dave's solo album Some Devil).  There are other random unreleased songs such as Get In Line, Spotlight, People People, Crazy Easy, Sugar Will, Joyride which you can find by asking around the DMB message boards.  A few of those last ones are also on some of the band's "Live Trax" live concert release series.

Hope this helps,
Andy
