Fire I'm from the bay area and my mom is giving me reports everyday, man. Also, up in Washington. I used to work as a forest fire fighter....little known fact. Before coming to Germany. Ripping solo, by the way. You Rock, dude. You sound 32 years old on this one. Not 27. Outstanding song. Dave |

...and now to something completely different... Well, not dramatically... there is still a signature sound visible... but I think there is a change to be noticed... Not only the art, but there is a change in the music as well. Not sure what it is, but I think I notice some change towards a more direct, unwrapped delivery... The intro got me immediately, all ears... your vocal track have become the main focus area, and very clear... the guitar soloing are just that... not competing with other elements... just solo... brilliant! Good to hear that the fire is under control. The fire in your music is still there though... also good to hear:) |

This sounds really great, lovely production and great lyrics full of feeling for the situation; and you sing it very well; love the guitar solo with the wailing background vocal; great touch. It's a terrible scary situation to be in with fire and winds around you and I know the seriousness of the situation, but I can't get the image out of my mind of all this fire around you and yet you're playing and recording this perfectly performed piece, while the flames are virtually licking at your toes. Regards M |

One of your best tunes - the arrangement is excellent. Superb lyrics. And some killer guitar too! Glad the fire is under control. Peter |

I think thoddi's right... Your music's moving in a neat direction... The vocals are tighter and more focused, and the solo is nicely and bravely singular... I actually love the slow dignity of the chorus intro over the panned acoustics... I love the slower part at the beginning the most... There's more of a sense of melody throughout, and the bass really roots the treble end... Well balanced mix... Ed |

Fire wow. A very moving song. Amazing guitar work and your vocals are great, a perfect fit for the tone of this. I think the major chord ending is a great bit of hope to cling to. Overall, a fantastic piece of songwriting and performance. Thanks. |

I was installing a news app on my iPhone when up popped "fires in Spokane" and the first person I thought of was Vic and I wondered how close it was to you. The 2nd person I thought of was my buddy in Wenatchee (quite a distance but fire you never know! Glad everything is ok for you Vic!!! The song came out great! The guitar as usual has your perfect sound! Really a great song!!! |

whew I couldn't even imagine seeing something so intense, not alone living near it. A dream like quality to it, that surely must have been the homeowners state of mind, seeing the devastation. Great job, Vic, capturing the moment. Absolutely diggin that lead towards the end. |

Fire Vic - as a Seattleite, I was really aware of this fire from the local news. I'd also just come home from a motorcycle trip the weekend before via this area around Spokane. What an experience for you, and how incredible that you managed to make this great music out of a heart sickening, scary moment. I always look forward to your posts - you're a true artist. |

Your voice is a great addition to MJ, great pop texture, I said it before but sure reminds me of the kink's singer. Nice rockin music as well. Enjoyed the bass additions as well. Nice use of the guitar and the list goes on. Way TO Go! |

In catch up mode Vic - sorry I'm late The sound on this is superb - ear filling clarity - great placement in the audio field. Your vocals sound especially good here - the clearest I've heard from you I think. Logic 8 certainly rocks - I'm finding new useful stuff about it every day - you're obviously a little ahead of me. Cheers, Neil |

Great sound here Vic excellent mix and fantastic playing as usual - your shredding lead at the end is awesome and the bass structure around it is too good. Ditto the lyrics and vocals. Your craft has developed amazingly over the last year or so. |

Are You A Reporter? CNN called... they offered you the job. Great song and a great job on the storytelling part. I love it when you make me wait for the smoking solo. Man Vic, this is one wicked solo. Glad it was from over the hill. |
