Description
Me N' Jake met Bob Dorsey of Five Extra Arms fame in a pub in the Meatpacking District of NYC on April 29th 2007. We only had around 4 hours to cram in as much chat as we could about music, Macjams and other bits (and Bobs, heh!) as well as have a small libation, after our extensive travels (we had only arrived from Scotland an hour before and the Big Guy was jettin' back to Florida same day...)
So this is inspired by that day - what a fantastic thing to meet up in the most vibrant city on Earth. Brought together by music & MacJams.
The pleasure of that day will hopefully transfer through this little ditty...and I can confirm that Bob Dorsey is as funnier in real life as he attempts to be here, heh heh!
(PLAY LOUD!)

(PS - Katy - if you're reading this - there's a fair amount of "artistic" goin' on - no, there is, yes! Really....!!

5 Ninth Meltdown
Well there’s Me n’ Bob n’ Jake
And that makes the three
Guzzilin’ the Murphy’s
We’re out of our tree. Jake laughin’
– it’s a breeze
Keep on goin’, fall to your knees…
It’s a 5 Ninth meltdown.
We shouldn’t be here
And we’re goin’ home, sometime?
When we fall outta here!
Bob says somethin’ ‘bout the alphabet
An’ it ain’t no lie,
An’ we’re getting’ down to fightin’
About, “..is it Jay or Jie..?”
The yellow cabs are flying ‘round the MPD
And it’s only Bob n’ Jake n’ Me
we’re really out our tree
It’s a 5 Ninth meltdown.
We shouldn’t be here
And we’re goin’ home, sometime?
When we fall outta here!
(Keep it up, Boys!)
Well there’s Me n’ Bob n’ Jake
An’ there’s only us three and
They’ve run outta Murphy’s
An’ we’re goin’ “yeee heeeee!!!!
It’s a 5 Ninth meltdown.
We shouldn’t be here
We’re gonna have to go, ‘cos we’re KICKED outta here….!
Well there’s Me n’ Bob n’ Jake
And that makes the three
Guzzilin’ the Murphy’s
We’re out of our tree. Jake laughin’
– it’s a breeze
Keep on goin’, fall to your knees…
It’s a 5 Ninth meltdown.
We shouldn’t be here
And we’re goin’ home, sometime?
When we fall outta here!
Bob says somethin’ ‘bout the alphabet
An’ it ain’t no lie,
An’ we’re getting’ down to fightin’
About, “..is it Jay or Jie..?”
The yellow cabs are flying ‘round the MPD
And it’s only Bob n’ Jake n’ Me
we’re really out our tree
It’s a 5 Ninth meltdown.
We shouldn’t be here
And we’re goin’ home, sometime?
When we fall outta here!
(Keep it up, Boys!)
Well there’s Me n’ Bob n’ Jake
An’ there’s only us three and
They’ve run outta Murphy’s
An’ we’re goin’ “yeee heeeee!!!!
It’s a 5 Ninth meltdown.
We shouldn’t be here
We’re gonna have to go, ‘cos we’re KICKED outta here….!

Thank you Mac Jams! Wouldn't have happened anywhere else!
Jim, I can't believe you wrote and recorded this on the flight back to Scotland! Amazing!
This is a really cool song and if I wasn't there, I'd say it was all a big gigantic lie. Who would believe a coupla Scots would step off a plane and go straight to a pub?
You realize I will have to tell me side of the story... You know, some of the "funnier" details that were left out of your story. Of course I have to wait until Tuesday night (my GB night).
Great use of instruments - unusual combinations that work well and you really have a great voice. I love the story told here. It brings back vivid memories of us being strong armed outta that place by big tough bouncers....
Kisses to Jakers. She's a doll.
