J.J.

No, I will NOT be your band's friend.

About Me

When I was 13, I listened to Joe's Garage way too many times, and I watched too much porn, Monty Python and Dr. Who. When I was 18, I watched Saturday Night Fever while on 10 hits of LSD ... and this was way before disco was cool again. Those events should explain me perfectly.I strongly believe that friends don't let friends act like rock stars, because if I wanted to deal with this many assholes, I would have become a proctologist.

Nov. 8, 2006 - J.J. plays with the Who
