Flood Damage is me, Michael Rose, and I am Flood Damage. Thus it has always been and always will be. I find like-minded individuals to make musical chaos with and play live sometimes. People dance and laugh and try to retain their sanity. You should come, and we'll be friends.
Flood Damage is beloved by music fans, porn stars, criminals, lawmen, lame people, non-lame people, sex superstars, virgins, dead people, live wires, celebrities, hermits, cat lovers, baby kickers, heroes, villains, mayors, Mayans, ghosts, ghostbusters, and probably you too.
I'm also a theatrical artist... you know the type, pretentious as hell, always writing stories and plays, rockin' songs, manifestos, trying to get people to notice them. Nothing but trouble, those types.
My undergrad degree was in Theatre/English meaning I
know how to spell things on stage.
I want to be the world's first rock star, playwright,
actor, author, pro-wrestler, porn star -- all at once, of course.
Sometimes I pee when I laugh, or vice-versa.
I like kittens.
Flood Damage is now spreading the chaos down in southern Illinois. Featuring juice box giveaways, chaotic square dancing, and more noise than you can shake a stick at (unless it's a really big stick).
MP3s, writings and all sorts of other wonderful stuff can be found at the main

thinking of you. Hope you are healthy and happy. I also hope that the hamster of doom does not rain coconuts on your pitiful city. If he does, I hope you are armed with a lot of cheese and David Bowie's album "Aladdin Sane". For some reason rodents find that recording vile.
