TARPAPER SHACK

Until the Wind and Comes and Blows It Away

About Me



Tarpaper Shack has been the on again/off again name of bands fronted and co-fronted by Tom "Guitarface" Marshalek (aka "Tarpaper Shack") for the last fourteen years. The latest incarnation was named BLAMF! (see the Urban Dictionary for an explanation), but the name wasn't working. Underneath all the layers of glitz and glamour, we were still just plain Tarpaper Shack.

I live in a Tarpaper Shack
At least I own my own home (repeat)
And when the wind comes and blows it away
My spirit will be free to roam

There are about a million bands on mySpace. We stand alone, ready to rock your soul to the core. Or something.
