It’s a late for the collections post today. Sorry Arica!
When I posted the Sweet Children demo last month, people chimed in and wanted to hear the entire tape that Billie Joe gave to Arica, so here you go. Check out “Words I Might Have Ate” from the 1,000 hours session. There is awesome stuff throughout this tape. Enjoy!

Today is Billie Joe Armstrong’s birthday, so let’s pull something extra special out of Arica Pelino’s suitcase of gold here.
Some tracks from this have been out on youtube for some time, and I thought I saw the complete thing somewhere but I can’t find it now. Regardless, this is the first time that this has been transferred with the Nak Dragon and the capture chain over here. Wow, it sounds really good. This is on a normal bias tape so I didn’t have high expectations, but it sounds excellent!
Track list is in the image – just the Sweet Children demo in the upper left there.
Highlight for me is during the end of the instrumental- it just cuts off and Billie Joe recorded over the end on this tape and says Never Mind. LOL.
