Real punk/hardcore/crust. Old school metal and classic rock. Moldy oldies. Motown. Rhythm and blues. Obscure drunken swing. Been listening to David Allan Coe and Willie Nelson a lot lately. I don’t know if that “means anything.”

Check out the above video, A Zombie Love Story. I'm in it, and I did the chewing noises too. As you can see, I am multi-talented. Rad.
What you see is what you get, and what you don’t see is better yet. Working slowly towards being less of a cynical, bitterly sarcastic fuckhead. Hot piece of hessian ass. 100% committed to mix tape excellence. Never is the day when I run out of things to talk about, which can be good or bad, depending on your disposition. I set up all-ages shows in the East Bay for almost ten years, and stopped before so-called “promoters” became the new zine kids. Typing streams of unconsciousness regarding music, movies, and wrestling is what I enjoy doing. Fine publications that I somehow convinced (heh) to allow these to be represented in print at one point or another include The Insubordinator, MRR, People Under No King, and UGZ. Some of these columns can be found deep in the annals of my stupid blog. (Couldn’t they come up with a better word than “blog”? I mean, really.) I supposedly have a column titled “Rock ‘n’ Wrestling” appearing in Goblin magazine out of Eugene, OR. On the road to becoming a professional voice-over dude, and barely scraping by in the meantime. But what I’d really like to do is direct. Couldn’t care less about dumpster diving, the wacky features on your cell phone, wigger mosh metal, conscious hip-hop, reality TV, celebrating “diversity,” the vegan anarcho-fascist revolution, the latest in trendy bikes, or whatever purpose the coked-out Hitler Youth pop starlets serve in society.
