About Me

Pimp out your webpage with PimpWebpage

THE FOLLOWING PRODUCTS ARE USED LIVE AND IN STUDIO AND DEFINATELY LACK SUCKITUDE!!! (shameless endorsement...ahem, cough)WELCOME TO THE ROB HASPELS MYSPACE PAGE!!!Rob has often been referred to as the "Musical pride of New Orleans", which is unfortunate, since he's never been to Louisiana. Rob started his journey as a musisican at the age of 5 with Piano and guitar, and a few odd assorted pots, pans, and a kumkwat. Rob eventually stopped piano lessons after 13 years. Have you ever heard of a band called "The Babys"? Thats very nice, although Rob never actually played for them. It is also completely untrue that he blew off an interveiw for T-Rex due to being busy watching VH-1 behind the scenes of Kagagoogoo, and it is very possibly untrue that he didn't return any phone calls to people completely unassociated with Jesus Jones. Rob has played the guitar in 4 different bands since 1995, recorded muliple CD's, and been to Iraq once. So naturally, Rob is not the guitarist in any of his current bands.Rob plays the bass for Sean Huguenin, and occasionally works with other artists, but only if the booze is right. Due to constant interference from space aliens, the Obama Cult, and the U.S. Army,and inspite of his hectic schedule of not touring, Rob finds himself far too busy to run Karaoke shows on a full time basis, except for every Thursday at Johnny Macs.Rob is a master electrician, which means people bring broken stuff to his house all the time. Says Sean, "One time we blew an amplifier in the middle of a show, and we thought weâ€™d have to quit early. Rob sprung into action. Using nothing but a soldering iron, two extension cords, and some plutonium that was just lying around in the bar, Rob went to work. Not only was he able to fix the amplifier and make it twice as loud as it was before, but we were also responsible for turning Polk City into the global nuclear threat that it is today."Rob has toured the world, and even took an exotic 12 month vacation in Baghdad. A semi-talented guitarist, bassist, keyboardist, and backing vocalist ( see reference for "Richie Sambora" ), Rob is sure to provide some level of entertainment at all times during a show, a party, or a military excersise.
