I've tried to search but I'm coming up empty. How can I hear "Insane"?

it's in the esnips folder.

Maybe if Damien sees this topic, he might change his mind about Insane and put it on album 2!!

I apologize for my ignorance, but what exactly is the "esnips folder"?

it is a collection of Damien songs which is over somethin like 53 i think and it covers a lot of live/unreleased songs (it obviously doesnt give all versions.

but anyway.

Esnips is a storage website where we/mike dumps files for eskimo listening.

http://www.esnips.com

and e-mail username "eskimofriendmike@yahoo.com"
and password "eskimofriend".

tis' easy. :)

That's wonderful, thanks a ton.
