DESCRIPTION:
The finale, track 6 of set 2 of the Feb 4th, 2000 SGC / Steve Ball Roadshow benefit for KSER Radio hosted at the Whidbey Island Center for the Arts.

Six committed collaborators rocking out in five: Curt Golden, Dean Jensen, Brock Pytel, Jaxie Binder, Robert Williams, and Steve Ball nail Steve's song 'Gravity.' The song was originally recorded by Ronan Chris Murphy (with Bill Rieflin on drums) in the band practice space I shared with Bill and Krist Novoselic in the mid-nineties.

That original recording was finally released on the first SB Box Set (2003) CD3: "Roadshow."

gravity

shake out your spine
prick up your ears
unfold your arms
silence your fear
open your mouth
tear off your chains
lean back your head
drink in the pain

confrontation won't make the weight any lighter
heavy water won't wash away heavy weather
fancy glassware won't make the poison taste better
bite the bullet: put the hammer down

gravity gravity gravity pulling down
therapy charity clarity running dry
gravity gravity gravity pulling down
gravity gravity gravity

I will not fall down
I will hold
your heavy anger

I will not fall down
I will hold
your heavy anger
anger
