Two of the songs performed at Club Infinity are "Its Been Awhile" and "Outside." Outside gives you a better idea of what Aaron means when he said he was always changing the lyrics to it, as its essentially the earliest available version of the song. "Its Been Awhile" remains virtually unchanged on the other hand. Although nobody knows for sure, its believed Chris Ballini put the recordings out on the net perhaps to let people know how Aaron & Jon started It is known that Aaron and Chris had an acoustic grunge duo at one time which ran from about 1995 to 1998. As for Jon Wysocki, he played in a short lived funk band by the name of "Defunkt" along side Tori Sands & Chris Ballini. source: LiNK
