About Me

Welcome to my music popularity contest. Go on and comment or message me if you want, I'm real good about responding back. I'm originally from Ventura, Ca. I was in the Army at Ft. Bragg, N.C. I was part of the first Desert Storm. I'm totally against war, but not against the soldiers who fight them. I got out of the army and moved to Wilmington, N.C. for a few years, moved back to Ventura, Ca. for a spell, then moved to Park City, Utah, where I snowboarded 100+ days a year. I formed a band called Sauteed Mushrooms, we had a good time. I've shared the stage with acts such as G-Love, Big Head Todd, INXS, Banyon, Karl Denson, Grandmaster Flash and others. I've headlined for Sundance film festival (multiple years), 2002 Winter Olympics, Earth Fest, and more. I've traveled all over the United States. I am now living in Encinitas, California, back to my roots, in the water. I surf, snowboard, skate, party, go to concerts, hike,camp,and fish. Lately, I've run into a lot of old friends and such and they've been asking where I'm playing next. I had no answer cause I haven't been playing anywhere, except at my house. I'm trying to find some people and places to play here in SoCal. I'm going under the name Billy & The Filthy Few. I just got my music library up with all my songs collaborated and I thought I'd should share them, since I'm not playing out...yet. So, here on myspace, I made all of these downloadable so if you want to put them in your music collection, you can. This is a way for some of the really cool live shows, and not so live shows can be heard. Whats music if it can't be heard... If you liked The Sauteed Mushrooms...Your at the right place. Hope all is well in your world. Peace and love to you all. Billy

Goin back to Cali!

Well, me and shelley are now moving to Encinitas, California.  I am excited to get back in the water.  We found a nice place about a mile from the beach, so tired of looking at houses.
