St. Louis

Dirty Side Down, 2010

It began as connective tissue between other songs on stage, and firmed up in the studio into the long way into Shut Up and Drive.

We've been playing that on stage as a little bit of a transition piece. It took on a little more solid shape in the studio. There's a free-flowing, open, airy jam there in the middle of it... Oh, let's just stick the ‘St. Louis’ jam in front of that [‘Shut Up and Drive’], and you've got a long intro then.
