Adventure Thing #2.26 - Extra Odds & Ends

Added 2021-06-01 01:00:03 +0000 UTC

With any project like this, where we were scouring our vaults, we were bound to miss a couple! Turns out there were a few odds and ends (especially semi-released tracks) that we missed in our roundup. So here's a few extras!

Unreleased Track - "A Good Day"

This was another co-write, and along with "Overcoat" it's probably one of the ones that I like the least from this period of KABOOM! cowrites. The writer I worked with on this one was a good guy, but he and I didn't really gel, and I always felt like this one just ended up being a bit cheesy. Still, in the spirit of Side Quest, I'm happy to share it with you warts and all.

Semi-Released Tracks - Odds & Ends (special thanks to Eli for posting these on the Discord and reminding us!)

"Welcome To The Breakdown - This Atlantic Remix": an awesome fan remix of "Welcome To The Breakdown" that we had released to the mailing list back in the day, I had actually completely forgotten about this one.
"Down Today" - a cover of one of my favorite Jonathan Coulton songs, I did a video as I sang this in one take, just me and a gameboy.
"Money" and "Just Decide" - Live at Lincoln Hall 2011 - I will admit I had completely forgotten we released these two tracks, which are from a Lincoln Hall show we did in 2011. This version of Money is near and dear to my heart as it's the first time I did the Kool Moe Dee "I Go To Work" rap in the breakdown (a direct predecessor to Hari doing the "College of Automation" rap many years later)
"Tetris by IFD" - This is the audio from a video we made right after we acquired our Nintendo Guitar, having Packy play the various parts at different spots around Chicago. As you can tell from the audio, it was a neat toy but not a very high quality guitar 😂
