Out here in Virginia, we have this annual festival called Macrock. It’s been around for a while and changes hands every 3-4 years or so. Anyway, depending on who’s in charge for any given year, we’ll either get asked to play it or we’ll have to apply to play it. Last year was an application year, so we put in the application and just kind of forgot about it. A couple of weeks before the event, they finally announced who was playing. In true bass-player fashion, our guy Andy figured we weren’t going to do it on such short notice and went off on a snowboarding expedition. Not being one for canceling and seeing that we were slated for the “metal showcase” (kinda notorious for being in oversized, off-site venues with not nearly enough bodies to fill them), the idea was hatched to do an alter ego set with guitars, electronics, and all kinds of circuit-bent goodness.

So myself, Graham, and former Magic Bullet intern Daniel Bachman got together one spring weekend and jammed on some material that we’d play the following Friday at Macrock. That rehearsal session was recorded and edited throughout the week for a C-45 that we made 50 copies of for the show. After playing 30 minutes in front of like… 12 people, we came home and got rid of the remaining tapes in a couple of days via the webstore. After getting enough “awww duuuude, I wanted one”s, it was issued on CD with a hand-screened cover featuring art that I signed and numbered.
