Anywhere But Here

Alec Baldwin proudly proclaimed he'd "leave the country" if Bush the Second won the election. The TableForOne media empire quickly set about producing a development deal for a daring new TV pilot involving Baldwin's world-wide hunt for a new place to call home--"The Getaway." Since the temperamental Baldwin would never find a place without strife or angst, we envisioned the conclusion of each episode consisting of Alec boarding a plane screaming, "...and I'm never coming back!" This compilation is the soundtrack to Season One.
