so this is how i kept out of trouble during high school and college. it was lots of fun, i learned a lot, and i made a few fantastic tunes. electronic music was always a means to an ends for me - i couldn't rock out in the apartment where i lived.
now, i live in a house, and my bedroom is just about a legitimate recording environment. so, i'm making just-about-legitimate rock and roll recordings with my band, the eardrums. that's where my heart is.
i'm still a fan of blue t-shirt, so let's say he's sleeping or living in kalamazoo instead of dead. as far as i can tell, i will never stop creating, in one form or another. it's gonna be music of some sort until i go deaf. however, i don't think i could ever settle down into a single musical identity, and so be it.
