UNDERCOVER STOKES



JS part II, the saga continues . . . Stokes goes underground and undercover . . . leaves his family and friends behind . . . with a bag full of cans and a bottle of wine . . . waiting out the rain in el baƱo . . . the truth about what is going on in the house tonight . . . ducking the neighbors . . . a deal with the devil and a catfish the size of a whale on the river styx . . . 

This concludes the basement, bedroom and bathroom series.  Recorded on a TASCAM 788 in a series of places between 2005 and 2009, mostly in Kalamazoo, MI in the bedroom and the bathroom and the basement over on Newton Ct . . . a strange graveyard where everything looks the same.  A few tracks from Aleandria, VA in the REALLY SMALL bedroom . . .

Hunted down and underground, wearing masks and leaving no footprints.  Enjoy.
