A dark and contemplative album, that was recorded to CD but never released until tonight. My son was just born, a lot of deeper meaning in here now that I have some distance. Thinking in album format starting to develop. Barfight, its music, was really a Danny song. He had left to get his PhD in American history, so we recorded it, and he came back into Oakland to record with Mike and I. Was before Michael had a control booth, total bedroom recording at the vulcan, early protools, very cool, All guitars are models in amplitube. Still use amplitube now live on my iStomp. Anyway thanks for listening.
