Maybe I'm just a bitter old man

About Me

I currently write, sing and record with Buddha's Revenge but I also have my own material (on the player now). The U.S. Patent Office granted me a patent on the guitars I make and play and recorded quite a bit with when I was in The Wooden Boogers (check out The Bongo Song on The Wooden Boogers player). In VICTOR'S OUT OF THE OFFICE, I learned how to make a film and how not to get a record deal. My son and I run a music and promotion syndicate called Dirty Power. We are currently working on the promotion of my new CD, Big Nothing and the new Buddha's Revenge CD, The God Shaped Hole. I make art, music and film in the manner that reflects me, regardless of what people think of it or whether or not it makes me any money . Lately I've been partial to the phrase "salvation is free". I think it more than I say it.

WITHOUT YOUR SMILE, the music video, take it or leave it.

The music video for WITHOUT YOUR SMILE was shot by Barb on a Canon Elph. It's an earlier Elph that shoots 15 frame per second video so with youtube's compression it has a distinctly ethereal affect. T...
