I wrote + recorded all these songs on various 4-tracks usually in Travis Nelson's room, 
because Elea Tenuta would be watching T.V. in our room.
The sound in 23. is me Tap dancing in the kitchen, 
but I kept running in to the recyclables.
I also used Travis's guitar + practice drum kit and John Goff's meastro 
because I don't own any of my own equipment.
This record isn't meant to be any big sprawling piece of art or anything.
It's just me goofing around on 4-tracks + having fun.
If you would like lyrics to this stuff, then write me through Cargo.
These songs were all recorded on to a cassette tape 
which I kept in my back pocket for a couple months (including a tour), 
then thrown on a DAT tape by P Hix 
and mastered by this guy Josquin computer stuff computed by Jeff Motch.
Thanks for giving me the time of day.
