Band Quotes:
Barry: "This is another song about the search for the girl, but it's a little different
flavor, this guy, this particular character who's searching for the girl..."
Terry: "We'll call him Ralph…"
Barry: "…he goes around the world in search of not necessarily the girl, he
goes in search of the magical instrument, the violin, this magical violin, that
this maker made out of a magic tree that was planted by a magic seed by umm,
by who, umm Johnny Appleseed, and umm Johnny Appleseed…"
Terry: "Dude, your giving it all away"
Carter: "No this is great cus I didn't know this"
Barry: "Johnny Appleseed has a magic seed, and he plants it, and grows a magic
tree, and Paul Bunyan happens by and chops it down, and he sells the wood, the
magic wood, to the violin maker who makes the violin, and it's a magic violin
because that's the way magic works, and the violin maker is so happy with his
violin- I'm not making this up- he's so happy with his violin that he smashes it-no,
he smashes his tools, and stops making violins, and he hides the violin and then
he just dies happy, so this boy hears about this violin so he goes in search of it
hoping that once he plays it it will attract the love of his life…
now we don't have to play it"
Barry: (After The Song) "The funny thing is when I was singing that violin song after
explaining it I realized I really didn't explain it right and I forgot there was a second
half of the song that was different"
