A 2011 recording of Avocado Highway that is nearly identical to the original from 2001. This comes from the “Something New” EP that had maybe two new songs and mostly re-recorded songs. You can’t blame me for wanting a version with better sound quality. Fun fact: my mom used to work for the gentleman that introduced the bill that made a section of Interstate 15 the “Avocado Highway”.

This is a song I wrote in 1997 that was recorded again in 2000. It’s about my prom night. The “Stay Up All Nite” EP is still free for a limited time.

This was the 1998 version of the song that was included on “Not An Album”. This came up on shuffle today, and although it struggles to hold itself together, I was blown away at how loud the guitar was. I think I overcompensated on this due to the quietness of the “Pornucopia” album earlier that year.
