   About Ruckus
I play a variety of instruments in a wide variety of types of music. Here's some instruments I play in some bands: Banjo, Saxophone, Accordion, Harmonica, Spoons, Bones, Suitcase, Guitar, Jug, Washboard, Vocals, Jaw Harp, Ukulele, Gourd Banjo, Piano, Beatbox, Marvelous Contraption. Here's some genres I've been known to play: Klezmer, Country Blues, Ragtime, Math Rock, Country, Old Time, Bluegrass, Eastern European, Progressive, junk hop. I have a large slow growing tumor in my shoulder that may or may not take away my ability to use my right hand. I suppose that this will affect my musicianship so I'm currently playing as much as I possibly can. Or at least that's my excuse for making music my career right now.

"Ticklin' The Strings" by Sweet Hollywaiians
Amazing Japanese hot string band playing 1920's, 30's, 40's style hawaiian, swing, calypso, blues, italian music and originals,featuring vintage instruments.3 songs with Robert Armstrong and Tony Marcus(from Robert Crumb and His Cheap Suit Serenaders)

"The Sweet Hollywaiians have probably the best feel for this 20's music of any string band working today. They manage the rare feat of sounding relaxed even when their playing is hot, are top notch musicians with tasteful arrangements and a full, rich, warm sound.Plus, they have a nice gamut of tunes, from King Nawahi to Giovanni Vicari to Bobby Leecan. See them live, if you can, for an unforgettable experience. If you can't, buy their Cds!" ~ Terry Zwigoff

While setting up the tent yesterday I was playing Jill Brazil and it made the circus so happy! Folks kept coming up to me. "Who is this?" They ask. "Is this the same band you were playing fifteen minutes ago?" Hope life is good.

News Flash: I’m coming into town this weekend for a series of Dream Science Circus performances!

I highly recommend coming Saturday night (October 11th). The marching band I have danced with in Seattle will be making a guest appearance at the 7pm show. Orkestar Zirkonium is a Balkan style marching band that will instantly give you holes in your shoes…hmmm you say you like your shoes whole? Well, OZ is worth it…

Dream Science Theater
142 Ohio st.
Bellingham, WA 98225

Saturday October 11
7pm show
Doors at 6:15
$15

See you at the circus!
