Holy smokes. What a treat. I\'m just a few tracks deep, but man, this one is really sweet. The first two tracks totally destroy. Such beautiful music. Travis, your riffing on Ovum Prophecy is super cool. The bluesy vibe Bucket taps into during the last half of The Chicken or the Egg is so groovy. WOW. Even better than the first so far for me as a listener.
The interplay going on between these two guys on this release is amazing. It\'s not as mellow as the first, still calm ....... more of an edge to the vibes here. Soooo nice. I\'m not even half the way through this disc yet !?!?!
Hey Travis..... what is the synth/string sound generated by during the last part of Concentric Motion ?? Guitar ??
Very nice touch.
OK, I gotta stop talking to myself here but..... the next track is F**KING killer. I mentioned a bluesy vibe in the first post... damn.....Oyster Crackers intro is so HEAVY BLUES !!!!!! Damn. Didn\'t expect this ;D ;D ;D
Its great to hear some good stuff about it. I\'m going to have to order this immediately, can\'t wait for some more noodles.

Do it !!!!! You couldn\'t possibly be dissappointed. This album is truly amazing. Third listen going on now ;D
Man, this sounds amazing! I\'m so glad I pre-ordered my copy and that it is on its way as we speak.
By the looks of things, CNII is similar to the first one but with a bit more "spunk" to it? Still mellow, but a bit jazzed up, am I right? Kind of like that the noodles have some added spice to them I would assume. 8)

Hey Slunker...
yep, it is similar..... but I keep thinking "blues". It really leans heavy tword blues. It is really,really nice. Still mellow, but with much more edge to it. Lots of pepper and spices added this time. hahaha. I was suprised actually. That was cool. I have just about EVERY release ever, still suprised. He\'s been covering Hendrix live for a while now ( among a few other odd blues jams, incl. The Thrill Is Gone ( see youtube) ). Anyhow, blues,blues,blues. Two of my buddies and my wife also think so. Listening party here today !!
Hello, am going to buy this album pretty soon, because I loved the first one. I just need to ask one thing. I heard that you maybe could get Autograph of Travis and Buckethead on the cd. Is that possible?

I asked Travis in the comments box to sign it and when it arrived it was signed just as asked. This is just further proof that Travis truly cares about his fans. The album is incredible too... just making sure I get that in there.
I just want congradulate BH and Travis on creating another very tasty wedge. It makes me very happy when I listened to it. It is among BH\'s best CDs of the year. I look forward to the possibility of Chicken Noodles III.

I think it will happen ;)
Well, with Chicken Noodles being released in 2006 and Chicken Noodles II just released last year, I\'d say the odds for a third installment later this year are very good. I would definitely LOVE to see the birth of a Chicken Noodles trilogy, the first one was amazing and the new one even MORE so.
Here\'s to Chicken Noodles III in 2008, now all we\'ll have to do is wait and see what happens. 8)

So when you buy it you have a little box where you could write a message to him? Hm, I didn\'t know that. That is really cool, if you just want to thank him, or have something to ask.

Thats correct, you can add a request (like asking him to sign CNII) or simply thank him for doing such a wonderful job running the site.
Amazing! I was finally home to check my mail and found Chicken Noodles II and Monolith waiting. Chicken Noodles II is simply amazing! Anyone that is at all interested in noodles must have this album. Oh, and my Chicken Noodles II is signed by Travis! Thanks Travis!
I got my Chicken Noodles II today. The cd case was a little crackt, but the cd looks ok, also everything else. and I asked him to sign it, and he did. He wrote:
"To ..... Thanks for the suport. Travis Dickerson."
The thing is, is that he wrote my fathers name, seens it was his credit card we used. :) but he couldn\'t have known that. I am amazed what they do for us fans. That he took the trouble to sign it for me was really nice. So thanks a lot Travis.
Am listning to the cd now, and after 3 songs, I am really glad I got this cd.
Sorry about the name confusion. I\'m always happy to sign CDs.
If you put a note in the comment section of the order form and I guess put the name you would like to use, otherwise, I\'ll just sign mine.
I\'ve gotten a lot of requests for Bucketheads signature as well. This is much more difficult. The circumstances have to defiy the odds for that to happen and if they don\'t I will send the order without his sig and you will have to try next time.
In other words, a requset for my sig in the comments section will get you my sig a requset for Bucketheads, most probably won\'t.
thats ok Travis. Am anyway really happy for the CD. For those who haven\'t gotten it yet...you really should.
Hmm, I guess I didn\'t write any name there at all, but now I know that for next time, or anyone else that want there cd signed.
