hio,

a few years ago we were about to do our first real european tour, 
and our label over there suggested that wa maybe come up with a little 
live e.p. or something sell at shows.

we thought this might be fun, so we rounded up as many sm-57's as we 
could find, borrowed a bunch of broken mic cords, makeshift micstands 
and an 8-track. we set them up in our friend donny's garage, which is 
where we practiced at the time.

these songs were still new to us, and our recording skills were alot less 
refined (not that they're so savvy now), but we considered this to be 
an interesting document of what were up to right around then.

we only made about a thousand copies and sold half in europe and the 
other half at home because, lets face it, it's just not that great.

we did, however, like the idea of making something special for people 
to get at our shows, so we've been making different tour E.P's ever since.
this is the only one we were reluctant to re-print.

we recently decided to make this available again, because every once in 
a while we hear a horror story of someone overpaying for a copy 
online. anyhow we had fun writing this insert.....
