Radioset notes

Considering that this was set up as a blog for Radioset fans, I guess I should post something related to my music... So here's miscellaneous info:

The 'Demos & Other Such Things' box-set released last month is almost all of the unreleased material from the past 10 years. But a few thing weren't included on it, because they were either too incomplete, or already represented on it in some way, or just sucked way too much. (There was also a different, guitar version of Quark that wasn't included, because I had forgotten about it until a few days ago.) So anyway, here's what didn't make the cut:
Sunday Drive (acoustic home demo of 'Pleasantries and Other Such Things' - 11/2004); Household Drugs (acoustic home demo - 11/2004); Milk Glass (acoustic home demo - 11/2004);  the version of Manvoice included on 'Disc 3', but with weird lyrics;  a later version of Milk Glass with the chorus line from Breathe Like An Alien;  an early, noisy, solo version of Terrapin Drop from early 2005;  a very bland and repetitive song from 2007;  a short demo of Nocturnal Emissionary;  the acoustic improve that ended up becoming Retro Space-Age Future Station (Christmas eve 2009);  the ivy demo of Violent Afterbirth;  instrumental practice demos of Faraway and Machine Automatic;  2 untitled songs from Fall 2009; and several hours of lo-fi Polymer Bloom rehearsals from 2004-2005.  There's also a tape somewhere from towards the end of the Polymer Bloom era as 3-piece, that has recordings of Manvoice, New York Simon Underground, Briney, and Lilac Stray that may or may not exist anymore. The tape was borrowed and never returned so...

Butthole Surfers 1981-1982

I like their early stuff better. There's a ton of it out there now that's been liberated from bootleggers. Thank god for the internet.
These demos are: I Don't Know Why, (unknown title), and I Fuck Your Wife:
