Chisel

I made the mistake of listening to my friend Scott Miller when I was younger. He told me Chisel was no good and I believed him.

I had not, of course, actually listened to them. It wasn't until years later that I started listening to Ted's solo stuff that I decided to go back and reexamine his earlier work. My roommate Andrew was super into Chisel, and it wasn't long before I was too.

I accidentally saw The Sin Eaters at Coney Island High in 1998. I wish I had a clearer memory of that show because I know they only played two and they are supposedly legendary.

Ladies and gentlemen, for your listening pleasure, 3.5 singles by Chisel.
