I discovered my calling by fronting a band called "Krash Alley" when I was just 14 years old, this led me to a later incarnation, called "The Hellz Kitchen Show." THKS enabled me, along with my brothers, to explore a range of sound and experiences and to regurgitate for the masses what they had fed to me. While in The Hellz Kitchen Show we met many great people and made many friends that were instrumental in our journey and development. Having made several appearances on City TV's Ed the Sock's Night Party( hopefully our next Prime Minister!), shared the stage w Scott Mclleland's "Carnival Diablo", played with Marilyn Manson and having toured extensively. also performed with the likes of: Nash The Slash,Faster Pusscat,Trashlight Vision, L.A.Guns, Danko Jones, Dog Fashion Disco, DOPE, Mix, Sex Without Souls, Flatt Eddy, Rocketfaces, Anvil, Oklahoma Bomb Squad, Undergods, Rehab for Quitters, Zeroscape, Braintoy, Earrl, Birthday Massacre, New love amy, Robin Black and the I.R.S. Having currently created a fully equipped recording/rehersal studio facility named "Co-op Musical Machine" has also taken much of my time, and exposed me to even more of Toronto's untapped talent! In order to explore my many musical facets I am now working on a project that incorporates both heavy grooves and glam aesthetic. This project is called "Raised Emotionally Dead" A.K.A R.E.D and promises many sick surprises yet to come!

Well, now......here's something I never knew before, and now that I know it, I feel compelled to send it on to my more intelligent friends in the hope that they, too, will feel edified. Isn't history more fun when you know something about it?
Before the Battle of Agincourt in 1415, the French, anticipating victory over the English, proposed to cut off the middle finger of all captured English soldiers. Without the middle finger it would be impossible to draw the renowned English longbow and therefore they would be incapable of fighting in the future. This famous English longbow was made of the native English Yew tree, and the act of drawing the longbow was known as "plucking the yew" (or "pluck yew").
Much to the bewilderment of the French, the English won a major upset and began mocking the French by waving their middle fingers at the defeated French, saying, See, we can still pluck yew! Since 'pluck yew' is rather difficult to say, the difficult consonant cluster at the beginning has gradually changed to a labiodentals fricative F', and thus the words often used in conjunction with the one-finger-salute! It is also because of the phoenix pheasant feathers on the arrows used with the longbow that the symbolic gesture is known as "giving the bird."
IT IS STILL AN APPROPRIATE SALUTE TO THE FRENCH TODAY! And yew thought yew knew every plucking thing!!
