liner notes

I was born in Minnesota, now I live in the hills of Arkansas. I started listening to classic punk when I was about 12 and my music infatuation started around that time after trying to find out more and more about cool bands. Nirvana sort of started everything for me, even though I don't really listen to them anymore...(introduced me to the Vaselines, Meat Puppets, Sonic Youth, Bill Monroe, K Records etc. etc. etc.). I like to have fun with my mixes and I'm very much into incorporating obscure booty dancing tunes into my stuff....of course I like obscure finger-picking acoustic gems as well. Me like music.

In the future, Biff Tannen will almost assuredly own all of our asses. So, here's a preemptive honoring of his eventual kingship.

Congrats on first -- the future thanks you. Now, make like a tree and get the hell out.

Thanks man. The Ramones changed my life, White Light/White Heat is an obsession, the Violent Femmes first 2 albums are perfect, and High Fidelity is an all-time favorite movie.

Needless to say, I like you already.
