About Me



I edited my profile with Thomas Myspace Editor V3.6 !

I do a weekly radio show called Chicks & Cars on KDVS 90.3FM (playlists and online streaming here) that focuses on 60's garage and psych obscurities and their contemporary brethren. 13 years and counting . . . Thursday, May 29th, 2008, 8-10PST: I had a hankerin' for some banjo, so expect some of that. Bit of a country flair overall this week. Just because.
