I write and perform my own original songs and lately a few selected covers.
I was a drummer for over 20 years and then started writing songs and teaching myself guitar.
My last band - Dr. Loco and the Holy City Howlers - Salt Lake City, Utah (1990) I have mostly played solo shows since then but have put performing on the back burner while I raised 6 kids by tattooing and piercing with my wife Kita Kazoo
Now, after 11 years in Utah (2nd time around - I guess I'm a slow learner) I am back home in Metro-Detroit.
I grew up on Detroit's westside and went to Redford High School but this time around we bought a house across the street from Detroit in Fun, Freaky, Fashionable and Fabulous Ferndale.
I plan on performing locally and trying to put together a full band, which is my preference.
I am CEO of UBU Ministries, a church dedicated to teaching and practicing the Golden Rule.
In addition to teaching, I also heal the sick and perform counseling.
One of our main interests is community recovery, reform and re-development.
We consider tattoos and piercings to be spiritual emblems and are greatful to have been voted 1 in People's Choice Awards year after year. Our tattoo services were even voted Best of Utah by the Salt Lake Weekly in 2008 - the only time tattooing has ever been granted that award.
My fabulous and talented wife - Kita Kazoo, has been my partner in the ministry for over 25 years now. http://www.ubu-ministries.org
We are both available in the Detroit Metro area for tattoo and piercing services and have two great students here who also perform services. http://www.tat2me.com
Our original MetroDetroit studio "Royal Oak Tattoo" was sold to our last apprentice there; an excellent artist and all around good guy, Ed Deloney. www.royaloaktattoo.com
