Wow thanx so much Chris. That song is great. I can see why everyone is stoked. If PB is gonna start writing stuff like this.....
I really wasn\'t sure how mature their songwriting was but i hear now how it is. This song has so much room to explore in the middle. It IS a song full of love JOE. Wow thanx again chris. I hope they have more songs like this in them. Do not get me wrong I love the aggro energy of a PB show but damn I\'m getting old and need a few "pretty songs" to chill to. God I dig this band more and more each day.

vera st. ..dont know what inspired it, but it is a sweet song that is  a good way for the band to test their vocals and harmonizing and all that. its deff a cool song. should only sound better as they play it more. since we wont be seein Pb for a bit we should get Tim to play it on wed.

The lyrics seem to describe the singer remembering a memorable time w/ a lil hottie.  ON Vera St. As for the significance come on now, the guyz gotta have something to themselves.

i quote adrien, 10/31/03 pre-show: \'Tim wrote it about some girl he was seeing for a while. thats the street she lived on in staven.\'

editors note: mave have said \'is seeing\', dont remember. Vera st is a (1 way?) road in east haven off of short beach road / rt142.

Tim has been plagued by a sore throat lately, and if there\'s one song that would be affected by that, it\'s Vera St.
