i've finally made it home to Texas.
...otherwise? i travel a lot, and i work in my buddy Jim's Comic Shop ( Madness Comics!). Sometimes i work some conventions, sometimes i play a little music. i miss Secret Headquarters.
Most of the rest of the time i'm bathed in the radiation of the Internet.
i like some RPG's ( i playtested Shadowrun, Vampire, Changling, Werewolf) i like to cook, and i frequently abuse my guitar.
And i read. Alot. i have more books than anything else, it seems...
...one day soon i'll put it to good use.
Right now i'm blessed t'be in a little band called starhead.

i've been in a fistfulla bands, toured a summer with The Dead, driven a taxi, worked in a Reggae bar ( Nyabinghi!), and ran a couple of clubs. i've been a rock DJ on the radio and a part-time photographer of things rated NC-17 and above.
i've been writing forever, and have been published online and off in music mags, kid's mags, sciFi mags and even held my own column for a couple of years and ended up publishing my own rag ( with some mates, mind you...).
Back in the 90's things were swell, so i stay there whenever i can. Sometimes i miss being a rock star... which reminds me: Henry Rollins owes me a plate of Nachos and a bottle of Absolut. Hank III owes me FOUR beers.
Sounds glorious, right?
...trade ya...
So, if i've done alla this great shit and know alla these folk, what the fuck am i doing in Suburban Texas? Fuck if i know. No, really: i have no idea anymore. Got lotsa good stories, tho.
i live free,and i love too hard. Just lettin' yeh know...
BTW, my 'real' journal/blog/thingy is ( and has been for over 7 years) over on Livejournal ( HERE ), but i'm over here cos a pile of my old friends are...
i guess i oughta mention: you might've known me as J.C. Belial, Jon the Bastard, Wile E. Peyote, Darth Brooks, Simon Fischer-King, Xaybechae, or Bon Scott, depending on what part of the country yer in. Yeah, i know...
You? You can call me 'Mister', till i shake yer hand, we share a drink, or pass some fire or good words 'tween us.
Only one will call me 'Sir'.
I edited my profile with my fetid ego !
