About Me

Nothing but angry angry monkeys hiding in this feed shed.I host the coolest music video show on tv. I'm very lucky. I have a beautiful, loving wife. I'm very lucky. I live in a kick-ass art deco house. I'm super lucky. I play in the coolest traditional and original country & western band. I sleep with a stuffed bear...and another stuffed bear...and a kitty.

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

Barry Levinson, big-time Hollywood director of "Diner," my all-time fave film ever... And Mickey Rourke and Kevin Bacon and Timothy Daly and Ellen Barkin and Daniel Stern but NOT Steve Guttenberg. Sorry.

Michael Jackson. This is odd.

     My father is a farmer. My father was born before Elvis, John Lennon and Michael Jackson. And he has outlived all of them. The sonuvabitch is made out of dynamite and leather.

I am a thankful tv show host.

This is not a one-man band I'm operating over hear. I wish I could stand up and say, "I host The Otherside. I write The Otherside. I shoot and edit...I create...it's all ME ME ME." Well here's a ...

These songs just make me happy.

It's full-on fess-up time. I am addicted to music. Songs. Tunes. Slow jams. Rockin' mess-ups across all manner of genres keep me alive and kickin'(thank you Jim Kerr and Simple Minds). Sometimes I fin...

And now I love Joan Crawford.

I've always known Joan Crawford. Or more correctly---I've always known Faye Dunaway as Joan Crawford. Who doesn't know "No wire hangers!!!" It's part of the culture. It's in our very veins. But Joan C...

No, I didn’t sniff it.

Being in pretend show business as I am, I often find myself in very odd circumstances. In fact, sometimes that's the only thing that makes a gig worthwhile. On a recent saturday night me and the missu...

I just wanna listen to the music...

Music means too damn much to me. Hardly a moment of my day goes by without musical accompaniment whether it's the radio or the cool bands I'm in or just the ghostly strains of "Bopaleena" which I hum ...

Me and the missus have only attended Viva Las Vegas twice in our tiny little lives. We made the first one eleven years ago. And I will never never never forget standing at the lip of that stage and wa...
