"Why is your new instrumental called 'Bartleby'?"

----Because we want you to read "Bartleby," a great short story by Herman Melville. Our song titles will now be used to advertise our personal and political beliefs. This is why our next few songs are going to be called "We're Not As Good As The Velvet Underground," "The American Civil Liberties Union Boogie," "Marx For The Millions," and "http://www.popgothetonics.com/". "Distance" will now be called "While You're Rich And Young, Go Read The Amazing First Part Of Anna Karenina."

"What? You can't be serious. Anyway, what's this I hear about a waltz? Does it even have a name?"----What's in a name? That which we call a rose by any other name would smell as sweet.

"Did you just rip off Shakespeare?"----Just as well. Our waltz is all about ripping things off. For instance, its time signature is totally ripped off "The Blue Danube."

"Can we expect the album to be released anytime soon?"----No, but if you're looking for something to expect, you can expect the sun to rise tomorrow morning.
