At the forefront of my mind while listening to DIY, I imagine burly cowboys with thick facial hair, impenitent cowboy boots and wide brimmed hats. I\u2019m not going to actually look up their picture, for fear of that my imagination will be dashed by scrawny city-boys in boring collared polos. Regardless of their \u201cauthentic cowboy\u201d status, the lyrics are convincing enough for me. The final four or so tracks on the album are full of fond nostalgia, starting with the porch-front strummed <a href=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=RbxS3cEQB9M\" target=\"_blank\">\u201cWest End Sky\u201d<\/a> and (continuing on the \u2018up-in-the-air\u2019 track-title wave) \u201cNorthern Air.\u201d The final cut, \u201cTheir Will,\u201d is a wave goodbye with saddles blazing as the boys finish the ten-track set with a final kick to the wind. I would say that you should go check out Elliot Brood on October 29 at the WECC, but by the time this gets printed they\u2019ll be well on the way to their next tour stop. Hopefully you were there.
