About Me

Actor. Musician. Performance artist. Wordsmith. Freelance fat guy.

Renaissance man.

I am awesome. Seriously. I was in Contra. I share a birthday with Sabu. I went to Spacecamp one year. It was sick. I have a pivital role in Backseat Conception's punk slasher masterpiece, Punk Rock Holocaust. On my days off, I go to the local comic shop and purchase comic books. And I Go-Go danced for a Perfect Circle and Bikini Bandits at their DVD release party. I was on Uranium for like 5 seconds. I don't trust anyone of my general age group who hasn't seen The Goonies, Heathers and the Lost Boys. There's something wrong with that...

My Interests

Bad movies, bad music.

I'd like to meet:

My Tulip O'Hare...If you get the reference, that's a very good start...

Music:

All over the fucking map. Depressing shit like Tom Waits, overly happy and optimistic shit like the Flaming Lips, sometimes happy/sometimes miserable shit like the Pixies, depressed and pissed off stuff like Kill Your Idols, depressed and sludgy stuff like Crowbar, just plain pissed off stuff like the Cro-Mags...You kinda get the idea.Current faves= Merciless Death-Evil In the Night
Yes, I know, it's a band we released. But it's fucking AWESOME! Straight up old school thrash. 1985 called, and they were wondering where Merciless Death dissapeared to. The Plasmatics-New Hope For the Wretched
Come on, it's the fucking PLASMATICS...Do I really need to say anything? It's fucking classic. How could you not want to open fire on a crowd of innocent civilians after hearing Butcher Baby or Corruption? Slayer-Reign in Blood
Classic. Perhaps the quintessential thrash album of all time. Warren Zevon-Stand In the Fire (live)
Awesome live versions of Excitable Boy, I'll Sleep When I'm Dead, and a few others more than make up for the few weak tracks sprinkled throughout. Frank Zappa-Sheik Yerbouti
I've never been a Zappa fanatic, but I'm a fan of some of his work. This has always been one of my favorites of his albums. It's all about Trying to Grow a Chin. So energetic and absurd. That song is awesome. The Flaming Lips-UFO's at the Zoo
The Lips live on DVD in their hometown, at the Oklahoma City Zoo. No one puts on a live show like the Lips. It's a life-affirming experience.

Movies:

Dawn of the Dead, Dr.Strangelove, One Flew Over The Cuckoo's Nest, Shaun of the Dead.

Television:

THERE IS A GOD... The State

Why the fuck am I depressed beyond belief...

Maybe it's the lack of sleep. Maybe it's the lack of money. Maybe it's the lack of love. But today I'm so fucking depressed, and I really have no reason to be. What the fuck?!? I'm getting trashed ton...

What Kill Your Idols means to me

Kill Your Idols was always a band for the outsiders.They were for the awkward, the lost, the uncool...For the non-basketball jersey wearing, non-thug hardcore kid at a 25 Ta Life show. The kid who wou...

Last night...Was....AMAZING...

Last night=Phenomenal...I hurt in places I didn't know I had... So I had this crazy dream last night that I was in high school again, but it wasn't the high school I went to, one of those dreams......
