In December 2002, Joey Eppard released a solo album, Been to the Future. It includes both original acoustic songs, and solo versions of tracks that appear on other albums by 3, such as Paint by Number and Half Life. Another solo album, Joey RX, is available for international licensing, but not for sale in the United States. He has also released a song called I Can't on Purevolume, as well as three more called Word to the Wise, Shadow Play, and Dead on Myspace. Another solo album containing these songs has not yet been announced, but an alternate version of "Shadow Play" was later included in 3's fifth album, The End is Begun.
