Rob Oxoby on the Double Bass.
Jonathon May hits percussion stuff and drums.
Dave Simpson on Harmonica - when he is in a swanky mood.
Somebody's Momma (or occasionally a Pops) and I don't know who she/he is. Generally she/he is the drunk one crying out for Fleetwood Mac or Toby Keith tunes - I like her/his contributions to my songs. Assume druken slur - "Play Fleetwood Mac!"

Sounds Like: Air passing through soft tissue
Steel being organized through time and social structure.
Hardly anything at all.
The prairies on a cold day.
A horse frozen in a muskeg.
The way a watermelon smells.
