One question I hear more than any other is What's a Fuzzball??" Allow me to explain:
A Fuzzball is a 30-year-old fallen debutante who lives in Houston, TX with a bossy dog and an even bossier parrot who she SWEARS is the reincarnation of Napoleon Bonaparte.
A Fuzzball prefers animals to most people, because people can really suck sometimes.
A Fuzzball loves music, ALL music ALL of the time. If she's not listening to it, then she's singing it.
A Fuzzball has a mad love for all things British, especially their actors.
A Fuzzball is blissfully happy in a bookstore, preferably one with good music playing in the background. If you look under a Fuzzball's bed you'll usually find an entire library of books that she has dropped there after falling asleep reading.
Fuzzballs are usually incurable romantics, ridiculously optimistic, and bent on making the world a happier place.
Your typical Fuzzball will probably have a completely bizarre sense of humor. Just go with it, it will take you to funny places.
You should also be aware that Fuzzballs are giant nerds. Seriously. Science fiction, computers, the whole shebang.
Fuzzballs are also budding photographers. They love looking at the world through a lens and finding new ways to be creative.
Oh...and you can also look for a Fuzzball in one of the best movies ever made. ;)
I *lurve* the Counting Crows and this post made me love you even more than I already did. :)

See I love this song. And as someone who used to casually play the drums (read: in my parent's basement and about five times in public) I'm right there with you on the loving of the drum part. But what gets me everytime is the B3 Organ. I just love the sound of that thing, especially in the hands of someone who can really play it like Bill Champlin (Sons of Champlin, Chicago) or Steve Winwood.
By the way, am I the only one who thinks that one guitar player, the one in the suit, looks like Joss Whedon? Anyone? Hello? (isthisthingevenon...)

You should thank your brother; Adam Duritz is a scumbag.
