Band Members: Ain't no band here (check "/thebrownwig" for that nonsense). This nonsense is just me or select songs from old bands...see the "Bio" section to the right for the thrilling back story.You may know the songs featured here from such bands as CORNFED(c. 2001 - 2006; with Joel B, Dustin G), SHORTBUS(c. 2000 - 2002; with Kevin L, Dave R, & Mike P - collectively about half of the band The Great Influence Machine - which kicks a lot of ass). JAMAL & THE MAGICAL STAINLESS STEEL PIMPCOAT(c. 1998 - 2000; the 3-Act Rock Opera, co-written with Dave R and performed with T-Bone, Paul H, Abby, Bill F, Texas Tim, Pat S, Clown, & Jerry), HAPPY SMACK & THE MACK DADDIES (c. 1996 - 1999; with Pat S, Sreedhar Y, Kevin L, Bill F)...gets a little dicey going back any further, but if memory serves: Marmalade, Gulliver, Martin wants a Girl (what's up, John & Joe!), and Willie Horton.
