Here is the hurricane tribute song recorded by The Michaels, entitled "You Can't Drown My Heart". It is a 20 minute long song, and it is encoded in the Apple .m4a format (it's the only way I could rip it... sorry!) but it DOES play in Winamp if you don't have I-Tunes. Your best bet will be to right click on the link and "Save Target As" the song, then open it in your music software. It's a 20.1 Meg file, so for those of you on dial-up, it may take you up to twenty minutes to grab the thing. It may be well worth it though!

Michael A. also played some very hard to hear piano at the end and helped with found-sound samples.

You are correct, I'll edit the above text now! I also missed that Michael A. played some wicked jazz bass guitar. There was so much jamming going on it's hard to keep track of it all!
Hey now, you chose and downloaded some of those samples. That's more than laughed at. I think you also suggested stretching them. That makes you involved. Not just a laugher. Yo.
that baby screaming part in the middle was awesome. awesome. awesome. i don't know if i've ever typed that word.. awesome. but anyway, those were some great baby screaming manipulations there! let me listen to the other 10 minutes now...
no, really, that was great! i was really disappointed when it ended.. the water level rising song was very spooky, with great guitary sounds, and the ending of the hurricane hurricane song was really funny, it was all funny, and.. gosh. that was really great. 20 minutes was not enough.
Thank you Andrew! We put 10+ hours of work into this song, and I'm glad you enjoyed it. Also, feel good that you were considered 50% of our core audience when we were producing this piece. It's good to know we can connect with our core audience!
