Don't be all up in my grill

About Me



Mama was an English lounge singer, Papa was a neumann U-87. That German bastard was always on the fritz until he walked out on my mom during a London recording session in the 80s. I get called all the time to do McDonalds and Coca-cola endorsements but I AM NOT A SELL OUT. FUCK OFF OLD WHITE GUYS!

I play guitar in a band called the Otafuku-Rex It's tough to pronounce but we rock pretty hard. That is, when the prick of a band leader doesn't get in the way or try to sing too much. I have a day gig with some other crazy fuckers (my band mates) at an animation company in Burbank. The hours chafe a bit but the software is awesome. Check it out here.

My Interests


Vintage amps: Silvertones, Fenders, Musicmans, old Marshalls, and other gear that work's at least some of the time.

I like chick singers. I hate to play in their bands, theyre a friggin pain in the butt cheeks. But theyre a lot of fun after the gig... especially the wine drinking type! Couple of beers at the gig, couple more at the 101 after the show, and then back to the pad in Silverlake

I'd like to meet:

Neumann U-47. My dad could be a real cold son of a bitch some times, but Grandpa U-47 was always warm and present.

Music:

Stevie Ray Vaughn, Kings of Convenience, Tenacious D, Django Reinhardt, Birelli Legran, Bob Dylan, Beatles, Smokey Hormel, Sex Pistols, Wes Montgomery, Grandaddy, Earlimart, Beck, the octopus project, the Dirty Projectors, the Flaming Lips, Jeff Buckley, Damian Rice, Joel Shearer

Television:

TV: major waste of time.

that said, I like to Tivo a few of my favs… Looney Tunes, Tom and Jerry, 24, Nip Tuck (I had a little work done myself but nobody can tell, mostly dental), Alias, the Sopranos, Adult Swim, smallville, The O.C., crocodile hunter, fox evening news, 20/20, Colombo

Books:

A veritable melange of golden and silver age comics.... Wonder Woman, Super Girl, She Hulk, Aquaman, and other classics with girls and boys in tights
