Not quite good enough at any one thing to be specialized. Working on getting my voice up to the same level of mediocrity as my guitar playing.
Was into prog and punk at the same time in the 80's, but never had my ass kicked because of it.
Influenced by African music, but it comes through in subtle ways--even in my punk stuff.
- Favorite Lyric:
Don't try to touch my heart, it's darker than you think.
And don't try to read my mind because it's full of disappearing ink.
--Elvis Costello "Say Goodbye"

"Mailed off a check to address in Utah." Very clever lyrics! I love that main guitar riff.
