i wrote all of these in a flurry (well, except Born to Run -- that one took a while). recorded them all in a single night in my basement, when the kids were asleep and my wife was out and our weird haunted house decided to give the ghosts the night off.

this is the first in a monthly thing i'm doing where i give away stories and things for free. the next one hits 2/2, then 3/3, and on. if you like this, please check out my books (newest one: http://bit.ly/rem-auto , a memoir about my dead best friend), or just keep in touch.
the wonderful katie skau (http://www.katieskau.com) agreed to let me use her art for the tracks, so please go there and thank her, and take a look at her awesome handmade books.
the last song features queendeb, postal, lacy leblanc, michelle hilburn, cate freyer, and amalya tolchin. they're all amazing. track them down, twitter-follow them, thank them every time you see them in the streets. i will. i'd love to just throw up each of their unedited versions. they're all brilliant.
