I don't mean to bother you But I knew you when I was younger You were impressed that I was a rocker I wondered if you remembered me And i wanted you to see How good rock and roll has been to me My manager is in the car I swear to God, just listen to... this ONE song The guys in the band would really fucking dig it if you came I swear to god the car's parked right outside Come and listen to our song You're all invited dudes You're all invited dudes I've been in green rooms like this before Dressing rooms with band names plastered on the mirror glass It's as if these rockers had never drawn genitalia in their life - until - they found themselves locked in this room where they can smoke locked in this room where they can smoke and drink (2x) they can smoke and drink and hide away they can hide away from guys who brought their tapes You're all invited dudes

about

The years 2003-2005 were not great for myself and my family.

Without rehashing the sad events in detail, suffice to say my wife and daughter were in a horrific car accident. My daughter escaped with bruises, but Julie lingered in a coma for 18 months and died in early 2004.

This album was recorded the following year, with the final song written just after I met my future wife Sharon. The concept was meant to be a collection of songs dedicated to some of the women in my life; the album title is somewhat tongue-in-cheek.

However, as the album draws to a close, I took the opportunity to say goodbye to Julie with “Santa Monica Place” and “Waiting To Love You” which also feature snippets of Julie’s voice during our very first phone call. “Sharon in Venice” is from a cassette demo, an embryonic song about my new, embryonic relationship.

Sadly, the original Masters of this album have been lost due to outdated operating systems and unusable backup drives; these uploads were ripped from a sealed CD.
