They were out one day. Walking one day. Then they found a wood and unfound a wood. They were very happy. Then it went away and they were worried they wouldn't find it again. Or something like that. |

Yeah, pretty self-explanatory. I've long since given up on trying to interpret the hidden meanings of Eisley songs--they're not secretly railing against the President or anything. _________________ INTELLECT AND ROMANCE OVER BRUTE FORCE AND CYNICISM Smokemonster |

Don't worry, the Trolleywood has never taken anyone away (regardless of what the sisters Dupree may say). So don't worry about it. If you're ever in Trolleywood, you let me know. Send a postcard or something. Thanks!

There's a place in Sweden they call trollywood. There's legends about trolls living there & they're starting to make movies in the area. Also, I'll bet it's from Dandelion Wine, there's a chapter where the kids go out on a trolly for a picnic in the woods and it's left there...? I don't really remember because I read it a few years ago. _________________ But for now we are young Let us lay in the sun And count every beautiful thing we can see |

TrolleyWood is my daughter Sam's favorite Eisley song... and we love the live video version on the Combinations CD/DVD combo. Sam's actually planning on taking a small toy trolley to the Detroit concert to see if she can get all the Duprees to autograph it. She's got her heart set on it, so I hope we get to meet the band... _________________ Dan and daughter, Samantha - We Love Eisley! |

I don't really remember because I read it a few years ago. I think you're right. Sherri's a huge Bradbury fan, so I wouldn't be surprised if there's some influence there. That makes me want to re-read Dandelion Wine while listening to Room Noises.  _________________ INTELLECT AND ROMANCE OVER BRUTE FORCE AND CYNICISM Smokemonster |
