About Me


Create your own custom MySpace Layouts
I'm the fiery-dreadlocked androgynous rock star freak from San Francisco your mother warned you about. Actually, that's not true. Moms love me. I like to do stuff. I sing, dance, throw parties, DJ, write, do graphic design, and lots of other stuff. With my spouse and partner, the Mysterious D, I DJ and throw a monthly mash-up party – both in San Francisco, Los Angeles and New York – called Bootie, the first all-bootleg club in the United States. We also have partners doing monthly Bootie parties in Paris and Munich and do a couple of Bootie's in Black Rock City every year. (http://www.BootieUSA.com). We create our own mash-ups under the name A plus D. We also DJ an eclectic mix of electro, dance rock, indie, and hiphop, at various parties and one-offs around San Francisco - and cities all over. Obviously, I like music a lot. I'm also the lead singer for Smash-Up Derby, the world's only mash-up rock band. I used to be the lead singer for the infamous San Francisco glitz rock band Blue Period. I'm also an old-school Burning Man vet, the editor and publisher of Black Rock City's favorite alternative newspaper, Piss Clear. Anything else? Oh yeah, I collect old Atari 2600 videogame cartridges, and I have a collection of over 600 of them. It used to be kinda geeky, but now it just seems retro chic. Sorta like me.
