Straight Outta Jail To My Bloody Valentine

Last night a CHP decided he would use me to fill his quota... He pulled me over for speeding and after 20 minutes of so called "sobriety test" he placed me under arrest, drove me to headquarters and had me blow into the breathalyzer. I was never told what my blood alcohol level was. Later I was taken to the Santa Ana Jail where the officers had Scrappy Doo syndrome and fucked with us all night long. I was released around 1pm the following day and came across this on my walk home. I guess lots of kids are dying in the hood these days. A few hours later I found myself in Santa Monica awaiting the arrival of My Bloody Valentine.

1991: The Year Punk Broke

I purchased this on VHS back in 1992 at chain store called Music Plus that was down the street from my parents' house. At the time I was 11 years old and only had three or four tapes, Sonic Youth's Goo, Nirvana's Bleach and Ramonesmania. None of them even belonged to me, I had permanently "borrowed" them from an uncle. All three bands were featured in the film.

At the time all I had was those tapes, a sony walkman and a Mike McGill deck. I think I aquired a stratocaster shortly after.

Improvisations | Virtual 7"

I'm cleaning out the vaults before I start putting up new material.

These improvisations were recorded straight to a RadioShack cassette recorder in December of 2004 right before I left to England and France.

They were a result of nervous breakdown.
