Employee Handbook For Time Off

Format: Digital Download EP

Released November 2011

Released by Silver Sprocket Records

Details: This recording was made in the Dutch Oven in early 2010, exactly ten years after we released our first cassette – if not improved we’re at least much easier to download. (The gratuitous nudity and blatant homoeroticism remain the same.) Originally titled “Bass Solo, Take One” to keep with our inexplicable Metallica/bass player theme this EP was changed to “TIME OFF” after our new bass player John, no wait, Brian(?) felt uncomfortable with that kind of pressure.* (And because Jack’s 3–-month Sudamerican sabbatical has so far stretched to two–plus years.) * Brian (yeah, I’m pretty sure it’s Brian) passed the new–band–member test not by learning the songs but by fixing our van, by the way.

Track Listing: 1. Tommy Del Mar, 2. Bitchin’, 3. Thrillhouse, 4. AYU...E, 5. I Don’t Want A Bag
