100 cdr's, recorded with one mic on a few different 4-tracks in san francisco between september 2002 & june 2007, not mastered, some are loud, some are not, wood cut print by nathalie roland, zine by amy browne, art on cdr by jay howell, font & layout by megan greig, print labor by steve ziagos, some songs cleaned up by robert cross, christian lyon, ellery samson & daniel mckenzie, jon fee plays bass on june/july & alexandra sangmiester cello, brandy knight didn't know she was writing "morning message machine" or that i wrote "you are the proudest thing i've seen a lot of" for her, tommy guerro wrote "bass for tmoss" as a bass solo for thomas campbell & did not intend for me to track over it as i did, broken tony is in memory of tony vadakan,
"cantega de santa maria (24th & harrison)" was renamed after a man who stood up for me & another, losing his life in the process. if i have given you this stuff over the last few months, it was missing a couple of these tracks because i began to second guess the purpose of sharing.

tommy is real good at riding bikes & at not posting his picture on the internet. we lived in a 150 year old farm house in downtown santa rosa with my brother and brian. we worked together at two different jobs in two different towns and went vegan together.
