A Poem
This isn't college.
This isn't sensitivity training.
This isn't a "safe place."
This isn't the utopia where everyone's wearing a shirt (but everyone has a monkey).
This is America-from slavery to minimum wage to restraining orders to Mr. Mom.
This is purgatory and alcoholism and weed and jerkdom and hanging with your buddies.
This is the freedom of life, full of fuckups, divorces, and hot dog spinners.
This is a celebration.
This is Too Many Daves and this is Weekend at Daves.
Fuck the fun killers.
A Little Background
Too Many Daves is named after a Dr. Seuss poem, "Just The Right Number Of Daves" sounded too NPR-precious, and the name "Dude Jams" was already taken.



The Creative Process
Off of a steady diet of pizza, they trained hard in the dojo of the mind. First off, they tattooed "Decker" on that particular Dave's back, so the cops could always return him home and he could be spotted more easily in naked marathons. Then they hired Bruce Lee's ghost who said, "If you make an ass out of yourself, there will always be someone to ride you."
Too Many Daves ride themselves. It's a riddle.

TILTWHEEL "The High Hate Us" CD/LP



A virgin, a clown legacy, and a land surveyor walk into a bar.
The power of myths is that they couldn't have happened, but did. Charlton Heston, in Planet of the Apes, parted a sea, found New York destroyed, then cried. In Goonies, those kids found out that the true pirate treasure was the gold in one another's hearts. In Gremlins, if you eat and drink after midnight, you get cranky and tend to blackout after something's been smashed up-like a liver, a table, or a relationship. With Christmas, a fat man you don't know but is awful friendly gives you a present you'd been praying for.
Some said it couldn't be done. That it'd never happen. It's been the better part of a decade since the last Tiltwheel full-length. If Dillinger Four had their Civil War, Tiltwheel was fighting their own personal Vietnam.
Go look in a mirror and point a finger at that. Is your shit ultra-tight? Is everything in order and makes sense? No fucking way. So why should anyone demand a group of dudes to perform on your tight-ass, time-as-cancer schedule?
Don't yell at glaciers to hurry up. Don't expect life to be anything less than full of injustice, bad decisions, bad health, unfairness, inequalities, and the death of friends.
Take time to savor a clear and honest DIY goodness. Eleven songs of pure dynamite, the type of dynamite that cleared the way for the Hoover Dam. And that's still generating power seventy-five years later.
RIYL: A world that without cops, whiskey in drinking fountains, twelve pack cartons used as slippers, Battalion Of Saints, Tanner, David Allan Coe, insomnia, the sound of laughter when asked "When's the next record coming out?", mowing a lawn when it doesn't need it, but your parents love that wheel pattern it leaves in the grass, when "socialism" means that Propagandhi's beer is everyone's beer, clowns doing cannon balls.

SHANGHAI RIVER, Binary Code Will Enslave All of Humankind: LP



0010101010111000111000
Wisdom has been passed over centuries from generation to generation using different devices. The ancient Sumerians wrote on papayas. The Romans used Claymation. Steve Guttenberg invented the first moveable type bible. Later that month, punk rockers made zines, where one sticks X-acto blades and rubber cement into a photocopier, then swears at it. Enter sage punk rocker Ben Snakepit: zinester, manager of the second largest video store in America, and now, for the very first time, lead singer/guitarist of his own band: Shanghai River. Roll out this tanning bed of knowledge, take off your clothes, and bask in Ben's good, old-fashioned stick-pin tattoo-style advice to live by: "If you don't make your own gasoline, that's not punk"; "Stop drinking when blood comes out of your butt"; and "No body wants to fuck you when you get too fat." The Socrates of the now-punks? Only time-and the beard growth-will tell.

MADISON BLOODBATH / SUNNYSIDE split 7" $4.00



Madison Bloodbath: Invert WWII propaganda into the woes of personal
relationships. Torpedoes sink battleships. of love. Loose lips reveal to the
enemy. er. ex-girlfriends who leak your secret infiltration plans,
dismantling your current boner. Madison Bloodbath are the exact middle
between having a righteous rainbow-filled tree air-freshener tattooed above
directly above one's butt and having a real job with benefits and paid
vacation time.
Sunnyside: Contemplate what to do with their lives after it's too late to
die young. After surviving the accidents and the surgical dismantling of
their lives called "their twenties in DIY punk bands," these San Diegans
negotiate legitimate mental illness and doing one's best to navigate through
the thorns and flat tires of life: The voices in your head that won't shut
up and the perfect poisons, prescribed and otherwise. Is your life
backfiring so bad the back of the muffler of all your ideals has blown off,
but you still believe in something. Sunnyside's smiling at you through that
haze.



For fans of: Low self esteem, pointing a bazooka of bad ideas at one own's
foot, but still not blowing one's foot off, dogged resilience, people with
tattoos that, if you squint, really tight look like it says "dumb,"
Tiltwheel, and continents where no one wears shirts or drinks light beer.
First Pressing - 500 pressed (250 purple 250 maroon)
