BadAzz MoFo's Interests
General
Do you know what mental toughness is? Well, mental toughness is the ability to accept the fact that you're human and that you're going to make mistakes - lots of 'em - all your life. And some of them are gonna hurt people that you love very badly. But you have the guts to accept the fact that you ain't perfect. And you don't let your mistakes crush you and keep you from doing the very best that you can. – Billy Jack

Welcome to official MySpace page of ..BadAzz MoFo (a.k.a. David Walker). Some of you know me as the creator and publisher of the pop culture magazine ..BadAzz MoFo, some of you know me as the former screen editor of Willamette Week, and some of you just know me for being the baddest of the bad motherf**kers alive (there was six of us left, but I shot five). Although I don't get around to publishing the magazine that often, but you can visit the official BadAzz MoFo website, where you will find all sorts of interesting crap that I have written (you can also order back issues of the magazine and keep up to date on the insanity of my life). And while you're at it, check out my other website, Indie Film Journal.
Most of my time is now spent working on various film projects.
BLACK SANTA’S REVENGE is a short starring Ken Foree (Dawn of the Dead, The Devil’s Rejects) that I wrote, produced and directed. You can buy it on DVD at the official BLACK SANTA’S REVENGE website.
DAMAGED GOODS is a feature length (un)romantic comedy that I wrote, produced and directed. It will be available on DVD in 2008.
There is more stuff that I do, but after a while it just sounds like I'm bragging, so I'll just shut up.
Who I'd like to meet: People who mean what they say and say what they mean.
Thanks for being a Friend on MySpace! I hope you'll also become a Fan on my Facebook Musicians Page at Facebook (click to follow link) where I just posted a video of Lou Reed and myself performing my "Hail Hail Rock 'N' Roll" live in concert. I'll be posting 30 more great videos there in the coming months as a prelude to my World Tour and New Album in 2009.
