About Me

ATTENTION MUSICIANS!! Just because I happen to DJ and I happen to have a Myspace profile does NOT mean that I want to be friends with every indie-rock artist in the world. I've been sent numerous friend requests from different musicians with which I have not been familiar AT ALL. Just sending me an invite to be your "friend" if I don't even know who you are is NOT a good way to get free publicity. On the contrary, it's a really good way to piss me off. If you are a musician looking for free publicity, and I do not already know you as a friend in real life, DO NOT ATTEMPT TO ADD ME AS A FRIEND. Now, about me...I am laid-back on the outside yet intensely passionate on the inside. Behind these blue-silver eyes lies a soul still partially frozen in the 80s, with an obsessive love for classic new wave music and really, really old video games (i.e., Atari). In my spare time, I occasionally perform DJ work for parties, and Im working on producing my first electronic album. Im a big fan of remixing, graphic design, films, poetry (which I regularly perform at the Gypsy Coffee Shop), and my fiancee.THE FOLLOWING MUSICIANS HAVE DECIDED TO ATTEMPT TO "FRIEND" ME WITHOUT EVEN BOTHERING TO SEND A MESSAGE BEFOREHAND. SOMEHOW, THEY HAVE SOMETIMES BEEN ABLE TO DO IT EVEN THOUGH I HAVE "Block Friend Request From Bands" checked in my Privacy Settings. SINCE I DON'T KNOW WHO THE FUCK THEY ARE, THEY HAVE WASTED MY TIME WITH THEIR FRIEND REQUESTS. DO YOURSELF A FAVOUR: DON'T CHECK OUT THEIR MUSIC, DON'T BUY THEIR ALBUMS, AND DON'T PAY TO SEE THEM LIVE. IN OTHER WORDS, DON'T LET MYSPACE SPAMMING PAY OFF FOR THEM. THANKS...

Are you sick of unwanted friend requests from suckass bands?

AWESOME news. If you're like me, you probably get lots of friend requests from suckass emo/indie-rock/whatever music artists who are really doing nothing more than finding a way to advertise their sh...

How to find the Even Better Badger Blog

Well, I know that a lot of you might be wondering, "Why doesn't Badger update his MySpace profile more often?" The reason is that, frankly, I'm still not a huge MySpace fan.  I get too much spam...

A statement regarding the Bikini Pop Fiasco.

"Bikini Pop Fiasco" (the music event that I deejayed last Saturday) was kind of an appropriate name after all. At the end of it, I got on the mic and declared it a "success," but I've been giving it ...
