about

After Jeff and I were "Jinx", and before Jeff, Frank, Pete and I were "Begin Ending", for a blink of an eye we were "Trauma".

Somehow we were invited to play at a friends house party, and so we trotted out probably every song we had learned thus far together as a (then) cover band.

It's all here: forgotten lyrics, accidental unplugging of guitars, questionable melodies and rhythms, the witty banter of teenagers (one of those voices in the background is future Begin Ending vocalist Bill Stobo).
