I just posted this announcement to the 404 Not Found announcement email list:
Greetings, family and friends,
Well, it’s spring cleaning time at the old A7 Audio Research Lab, the
tiny home studio that brought you the first 7 releases from 404 Not
Found. In cleaning out the closets, I found all kinds of old CDs
stuffed into cracks and corners. And in the spirit of
out-with-the-old, I’ve decide to give most of it away.
That’s right. I’m clearing out everything but the most recent 404 Not
Found masterpiece, “Paper Cuts.” I/we put together 6 prior CDs
between 1997 and 2002. If you want one of them but don’t have a copy,
now’s your chance. All I’m asking for is the actual shipping cost to
get the CD from my hand to yours. Or if you’re local and want to pick
one up in person, it’s truly absolutely really completely free!
Here’s what I’ve got. First come, first served. Whatever’s left on
my birthday, which is March 20, is going into the landfill.
If you’re not familiar with the first 6 CDs, read all about them here:
http://404notfound.toddbradley.com/othercds/cds.html
– 3 copies of “Something is Wrong” individually numbered and signed
– 5 copies of “In The Beginning” individually numbered and signed
– 2 copies of “In The Beginning” in paper sleeves
– 20 copies of “Eclectronic”
– 3 copies of “Nightmare Lullaby”
– 1 copy of “Warts and All”
Meanwhile, as usual, I’m working on about 3 new projects at once. The
one that’s taken almost all my time the past couple months has been
doing sound design (music and sound effects) and lights for The
Upstart Crow’s production of “Orpheus Descending” by Tennessee
Williams. Opening night was this past Friday, and the show runs 2
more weeks at Boulder’s Dairy Center. If you’re into theater and want
to see a Southern Gothic style play, classically performed, this is
for you! Here’s more:

I’m also working (very slowly) on a concept album called “Welcome to
Earth, Shorty” that just isn’t conceptual (or funny) as it needs to
be. And I’ve got a collection of instrumental music in me that can’t
decide how it wants to come out. I may start releasing bits and
pieces of that online in the next month or so, rather than waiting
until I have enough for a full length CD. Plus I’ve got some more
traditional “404 Not Found” style comedy songs that just don’t fit
into the concept album concept, and I’m not sure what to do with them.
Maybe they’ll emerge on the website later this year, too.
Well, thanks for reading this far. Email me if you want one of these
old CDs. And, since this is the first 404 Not Found announcement of
2005, happy new year!
Todd.
