About Me

My new blog website open for business! MCHUGE.NET!

Watch this movie

I am playing bass again! (sort of) Good magazines are cool cuz I've worked at em. I play chicken with MTA buses on Broadway. Just kidding. I have been to many places. I can write in many different styles from plays to stories, music/film reviews, and technical guides. Would love to get paid to do more so check out the blog which is in the effervescent blog mode.

"Some scientists claim that hydrogen, because it is so plentiful, is the basic building block of the universe. I dispute that. I say there is more stupidity than hydrogen, and that is the basic building block of the universe." --Frank Zappa

"Life is unfair. Some people are sick, and others are well." -- John F. Kennedy, 1962

"Resistance to tyrants is obedience to God." -- Thomas Jefferson

My Interests

Tuneage, gazpacho, salsa, guacamole, chiles, hot sauces, biking around NYC, driving out of NYC, zoos, camping, surf quality, water quality, renewable energy and farming techniques. I'm an award-winning vegan chef! (I cook vegan and usually eat that way but do eat meat and dairy occasionally when it's served to me. Waste not, want not.)

I'd like to meet:

Artists, troubadours, roustabouts, directors, technicians, rockers, rollers, happy campers, builders, skeptics, cynics, prophets, bassists, spastic dancers, crazy vegetarians, saints who are secret sinners.

Music:

I'm a DJ who dabbles in everything tho I'm probably most at home with punk, garage rock, glam, old soul, reggae, stoner rock. I spin at the Ding Dong Lounge and also manage all the DJs for the joint. A lot of the bands in rotation are in my friends pile. I can shamelessly and spontaneously dance to almost anything.
