In league with Satan........ fuckers.(typed sometime in 2003) I once went through two bottles of Wild Turkey with Phil Anselmo and Sammy Satan.......told Phil he should start Down back up and sing (not just scream) again......and we all know how that turned out.........The Tore up from the Floor up 2000 Tour (Clutch, COC, Karma To Burn, Clearlight, Sixty Watt Shaman) quite possibly was the pinnacle of my life.I once taught Wino and Scott Reeder how to play a song I wrote, talk about intimidating.I am actually blood brothers with Kirk Windstein.On tour in Europe, I once did drugs in Croatia that you can be executed for possessing, in a club run by the slavic version of the Mafia. I once got kicked out of Dimebag's house, by Rita, for being too drunk, if that's not ironic, I still to this day don't know what the fuck is. Spending way too many months on a tour bus with Crowbar, I believe I endured a schizophrenic break-down, but I'm feeling much better now. Lars Ulrich once ran way from me in a panic, imagine, right after Danny Sixty Watt explained in detail to Hetfield, just how much Cliff Burton meant to me. I once got so goddamn ripped with Hank III on the Superjoint bus, that it took me two hours to figure out I was still in Baltimore, at an intersection in the middle of the Inner Harbor. Brilliant, right? Most Emo and Screamo-core groups that are tearing up the airwaves and the touring circuit these days probably hate me. I treated them like shit when they came through the Ottobar, and trust me, they deserved it. White belt, party hair, non-playin' jackasses, and I mean that in the nicest possible way. Zakk Wylde once called me "Cliff Burton from Hell".Pepper Keenan once called me a "Bad Motherfucker", to Rex Brown of all people.Sparky Voyles once called me "The Little Ball of Hate".Scott Reeder calls me a brother, so I'm truly blessed. Rickenbacker Basses make me giggle like a fucking schoolgirl. I love my friends and family, blood or not, and cherish them to death.
12/03/06-(revised) 1/16/07- Today, I once again play bass for Sixty Watt Shaman. I helped assemble the most unthinkable of projects, with some of the most incredibly talented people I know, SOAPHAMMER. I have the honor of being a member of ANGELS OF METH (best thing from Kentucky since bourbon).B.D.H. Forever, AOM always....All Hail!!!
3/16/08- The unthinkable has taken place, finally. I'm now proud co-owner of a business. Bedlam Tattoo and Body Piercing, in Lawrenceburg, Indiana is up, and running like a motherfucker. Since sneaking into the arena, carny stle, back in 1994, I never thought my impetous, disagreeable ass would ever, truly be my own boss.....well guess what kids.......hehehe. Two functioning bands, one on hiatus, and my own goddamn shop, it rules to be busy. Cheers!!!!
