First album, unsigned, unpublished, and unpromoted was titled "Hootenany Green."
Copyrighted 1989 as a demo on digital audio tape (DAT) and cassette only. Sold 50 copies on first printing and 150 on the second. Contains 8 songs
and a commercial.
The demo also includes
"Hey Mon," which was co-written in 1988 with Carl Franklin. The music from it can be
heard on any computer that has a soundblaster built in. Or look for it in search engines
as reggae.mid Marco has 900+
original songs, but he's only happy with 300 or so.
Writes whenever he's awake and completes the math while he's asleep and dreaming.
Marco is a Pisces, loves long walks in the park, the color purple, poetry and everything besides Proctor&Gamble products - IE: Pringles, Puffs, Olean, Pantene, Prell and Pepto-Bismo.
"Oh wait, did I leave out Puritan Oil, Jif, Tide and Pert?"
He's performed in Colorado, New Mexico, Arizona, Oklahoma, Nebraska, Texas, Kansas,
Wisconsin, Indiana, Iowa, Ohio, Illinois, Massachusetts, North and South Dakota,
Georgia, Alabama, Florida, Oregon, Tennessee, Wyoming, Washington, Washington, DC and of course NYC,
Connecticut and Rhode Island closer to where he comes from.
Marco likes classical and folk mostly, but he also likes punk, pop and parody music.
He used to play bass in a three-piece Christian Heavy Metal band called "POE," (Peace On Earth) so if you hear a
weird influence now and then it's probably just loose eardrums.
"If you think the music you're hearing here is eclectic, you should hear what I do
when I'm playing out in the streets!" he once told someone in the mezzanine to a
theatre where he was playing classical guitar before nine showings of Phantom Of
The Opera's bus- and-truck group. He didn't know it at the time but the woman he
was telling this to was Sarah Brightman's Broadway understudy. She went on to lead
both on Broadway and in the touring companies. Marco currently plays every day in
the summer at an amusement park, and hibernates in the fall, winter and spring.
Hi Marco!! How's it been going. Still ups and downs on my end. Still working on working on a demo. Yes I meant to write "working on" TWICE! ha ha. I have had a few exciting breakthroughs as far as personal growth is concerned. I guess that's what matters most ......continuing to grow through ALL OF IT! How 'bout yourself? Been there and done that? I wish more than anything that I could get to the NAMMYS but isn't looking good for next spring unless I can release a single. Well, sorry this turned into an email but I sincerely hope everything is going peachy for you!!!
Hey Marco!! I love the Quiznos Rats...and this is such a sick but funny video. http://www.antiboredomteam.com/checkitout/ouch-nasa-to-shoot-a-rocket-at-the-moon/
That's really awesome. I'm so glad you like them. They really are an incredibly talented group of people. I'm at almost every one of their shows and end up seeing them usually at least once a week and it never gets old. I'm never bored and they always surprise me. They definitely put on a great show that's a lot of fun for everyone. Their next show their tour kickoff on August 7 at PA's Lounge in Somerville, then they're gone for 2 weeks to Chicago and back. Hope to see you there!
I didn't know you were at the show! I didn't see you there. Given, I was staying on the DL in the back since I'm underage. That's so awesome. Thanks for coming out. Did you enjoy the show?
