I'm sure (or at least I hope) the band will tinker with them to make the
tunes more modern. I mean, "Sally" and "Gun" by the Brain Surgeons don't
sound like they were written in the '70s to me. So it can be done.

In light of this statement, it sounds like Buck will make sure these other
tunes are in keeping with the sound of the rest of the album.

Any word on who's providing lyrics for the album?

Yeah, if Danny puts the same energy into his songs that he displays at gigs,
look out....
