I saw Dana perform last night to an small audience that spanned 3 years-old to 85. He absolutely captivated everyone. Small girls, chin on hands watched without moving. Teenaged boys stopped showing off. Older women clapped their hands. Every face had a smile. When it came to the sing-alongs, even the stuffiest old guys belowed out the words. This is fun music but with serious messages about how we live. Parents get this CD (or tape) and share with your kids, even the grown ones. The rest of you, share it with your friends. I bought this CD from Dana and played it all the way home. Oh yes, when I went into the show, I had no idea who this guy was.

"Cows With Guns" is one of the best humor-with-a-point songs I've heard since the days of Tom Lehrer. Perfectly paced, wonderfully witty, carefully self-aware ("Bad cow pun..."), and carrying a serious message wrapped in gentle and imaginative humor. Nicely done, Mr. Lyons -- and I'm glad to know that the chickens in choppers are on our side.

This review is from: Cows With Guns - The Cow Pie Nation Cowpilation (Audio CD)

Cows with Guns is one of those songs that's been propogating across napster for some time...but the rest of the CD is definetly worth the money. "RV" and "TV God" are pretty strong satire. From there, the CD slides into more storytelling/ecological songs...the music is wondeful, the humor is great. Worth every penny several times over
