I am the Pope of Arkansas
I play bass
I hate THEM
I play bass guitar. Some of my past bands include: HOMICIDAL BRIEFCASE; THE GLANDS; COMBO GANG BUNCH; TOO MANY MONAS; DOKTORS FOR "BOB"; THE SHITTY BEATLES. I've also performed with BAND OF ONES; THE SWINGIN' LOVE CORPSES; REAGAN'S POLYP; THE BAND THAT DARE NOT SPEAK ITS NAME. I still occasionally perform with T.C. & the Eddies.
My two favorite countries are The Netherlands and Bolivia. Although I thank NORWAY for it's METAL. Also Finland, Sweden, and Poland. Especially Poland. Especially for GRAVELAND. Speaking of Graveland - I don't really agree with Darken's politics. I'm certain he doesn't agree with mine. I do, however, think he is a brilliant musician and I have most of Graveland's releases. There are many bands, NSBM and others, who produce magnificent music. But because I enjoy listening to it does not mean I subscribe to their beliefs. Indeed, I am in direct opposition to many of them. Just wanted to clear that up.
I'm married to the world's coolest woman! She's smart, unbelievably beautiful and makes a living by sticking sharp things through people's tongues, genitals, noses, and other bits. She also sews amazing (and EXPENSIVE!) competition ballroom dancing dresses and gowns.
I am a media guy in love with Macs, forced to work on PCs, which I've gotten used to. I not only have the greatest wife in the world, I have the greatest job in the world - Media Editor for the Encyclopedia of Arkansas History & Culture . I am a happy guy.
Our new band is called BLOODY HAMMER Check out my blog post for the latest on this project.
I have two beautiful daughters and one awesome step-son. They all rule.
I like VIOLENT, SATANIC, DESTRUCTIVE, NIHILISTIC, CONFRONTATIONAL, BLOODY, DISEMBOWELING, WARLIKE music. As long as it's pretty.
