	A funky bass line and some eerie guitars... Dojo means "place of the way". It was the perfect title for this song because it was concieved in one of my favorite places: the top of a bluff overlooking the Meremac river near St. Louis. I go there when things are bad, and I go there when things are good. That day things were bad. It's kind of a shrine for me. The rhythym and overall mood came to me one day when a train swooped into the valley beneath me and rumbled past - I found myself thinking deep stuff about humans and nature, the sameness, the differences, the interplay with technology. The growling bass line conjures up the rumbling train, and the delay drenched guitar was a sonic way to depict the echoes left in its wake. The energy in the song was probably a result of the six mile hike I did that day!
