This is one of my favourite songs (by me). For anyone who's interested, the odd rhythm is a 4/4 riff and a 3/4 riff at the same time. It changes from minor to major halfway through, to build up to a happy ending. The riffs themselves are all very simple. When I wrote this song, I was never sure if it would be possible to play live... Now with looping pedals, it's really easy :-)
Ian, this is great! You know I love the background info, and it's especially nice to have it spoken by you (although it's good you included the text as well).
PS: Does the fact that you spell your name backwards mean that you worship Satan? (So that's what Big D is all about!)

He he. Thanks Cary. The snavenai thing is a really old e-mail address. I just chose it so I wouldn't have to be "ian76_4*@yahoo" or something impossible to remember :-) I'm fairly agnostic, but the song Big D does indeed refer to... SATAN!
