Solo Releases
1996 - Present Fast Facts:
These are some of the more serious solo releases/demos, done in between releases with various bands. They are always recorded on-the-cheap with a home studio (Self-Imposed Exile Studios). Some of the older demos eventually became 'real' songs in Village Idiot and Liquid Car Crash, or were rehearsed and never recorded with those bands. Pre-Nerdiversary releases were never mass-produced.....usually 25-50 copies were made to give to close friends and family.
