The Other Song

"High school. A time when we all discover what we are going to do with our lives.   Not everyone has a record of the times they spent with friends, but I do. This is it. Stuck in the middle of nowhere with nothing better to do, a couple misfits would find their way to my house each week to make some noise. We learned how to play music together, had fun, but we were serious. This wasn't a hobby. This was it. You were either in or we didn't care. 
     We tried out for the school talent show. we didn't make it. We eventually got comfortable enough to venture out and play live. That's when it took off. We did two demos that were distributed, but we were constantly recording and playing live. We eventually got into that talent show but ended up getting disqualified. I hear there might be a video recording of that one, but I've never seen it. 
   Strangely, no live shows got recorded and survive, so what you have here are rehearsals, failed attempts at a releasable demo, and an English Project for school. If we didn't have the 4 track recorder, we used a boombox (remember those?) placed strategically around the room. sometimes the room was a bedroom, or maybe a basement, or a rec room. Sometimes it worked, sometimes it didn't. The fun part of recording this way was you had no real way to know, until you listened to the playback. Quality wasn't always an option. 
   Some of these are the only surviving recording of said song, so we get what we get. These tracks were selected in an attempt to round out a complete discography. Is this everything? No. But it is an even bigger picture than the 2 demos. These were songs that were regularly played in rehearsal and live at some point or another, or we just happen to have a recording of it! Either way, it's been a delight revisiting these songs, and bringing them back to life. " --Tim

    Justin's English Project. Mouse did one too. Tim never took the class! Produced, Engineered, and Mixed by Tim and Justin. Alt lyrics by Justin. Co-Engineered by Adam Alvarez 1996 
9, Sausilita / Ambrosia*
    Live at Budokan by SOD was in heavy rotation. The two copies of each included here were all done the same day, and we were clearly having fun with them. The quality is terrible in places, but it seems to be a different terrible on each version, so I've included both so you have a better chance at seeing the whole picture, instead of tape hiss and distortion (our friends).  These are the only recordings of these two live favorites.

*Recorded on 4 tracks August 25, 1996 @ Justin's House during a practice. Mixed by Tim August 4, 1997. Features Sean Lindell on 2nd guitar.
