Hmm… I found this photo of this cassette, now I wonder where the actual cassette is. Looks like I may have gotten it in the tape trade days? Mysterious that I don’t remember the details of who or when, but hey I am getting old!

Some double exposure thing I did, oddly I don’t remember where. Must’ve been at an antique mall. I should do more, I kind of like it. 😉

I finally digitized the last couple tracks from Eccentric Ostrich Accent by Xerst, a music project I did back in Colorado in the late ‘90s with Timmy P. Soon to be added to the Xerst Bandcamp page.

All it took to find the misplaced music I made in the early 2000’s was digging through these. (Feels weird saying “early 2000’s”) and there were a few more hard drives as well. 🙄

MDC pops into my head a lot lately. Funny how much of the political punk I grew up on in the 80’s is still relevant today. (Replace politician’s name and almost the same.) youtu.be/WmLcfPmihYw?...
