The bonus tracks included on the new edition include two previously unreleased outtakes from the SKITTISH sessions (“I Failed To Use It” and “Laundrytown”); two live recordings from the 2004 Bonnaroo Music Festival (“The Only Answer” and “Move On (Bloom Like the Sunlight in My Song)”; and “Get Along,” originally written and recorded for the independent film EVENHAND.
