About Me


I'm a singer, songwriter, comedian, and phantom all wrapped up in the body of a white retail worker for some mickey mouse organization. When I'm not doing that, you'll find me spending time with the love of my life.

On October 1st, 2006 I relaunched In The Mix w/ Arthur Bang, my online radio show and station at http://www.thepickle.net/ , playing some of the best new music around.

I made this music player at MyFlashFetish .com.
