Music history,(The 60's and The 70's).Textile screenprinting,Cooking. Collecting obitauries of the famous & not so famous.
Music
Surf instrumentals,Garage rock,Psychedelic,60's Acid rock,Spy Movie themes,70's Glitter,Punk,80'sGoth,Rockabilly,Electro-Industrial, some jazz, some 70's fusion,novelty records, As far as what I do, I like single bass drum kits. My bass guitars I like with only 4 strings, and vocals understood... most of all, guitars, and everything tuned to A-440. If given a choice between Whankvay Fastien or Nokie Edwards (from The Ventures) for a guitar player, I would choose Nokie.I do like 60's & 70's Funk & Soul, Sly Stone,James Brown,60's Soul like Jackie Wilson, Ottis Redding. What the record industry calls R&B today means really bad music. Other than Grand Master Flash, I don't like rap or hip hop.I think it has been forsed down the throats of everyone.And I hope the new kids see the light that rock will never die.Pick up an axe and ROCK!!!! Also, Support Independent Radio!

About me: I started playing drums at 7, had my first paying gig with two high school kids at 11, and played my first nightclub at 14.By the time I was 17, I landed a job with the higest paid cover band in Denver, Dreams. I dropped out of high school, bad mistake.Kids, I don't care how well you are doing in music, stay in school!! I wanted to be one of three things, A secret agent, a horror movie host, or a rock star.

If you're around on Thursday, December 10th, we are playing a show at Mario's Keller Bar. I don't know if you've been there, but it's a very cool place. It's a comfortable space, the room sounds great and they have a stellar beer selection.
Also, we will be playing ALL NIGHT! We'll play some funky, bluesy, and soulful music. We'll project live video onto a 9 ft screen. We'll play some older material that hasn't been heard in awhile, as well as some brand new songs that've never been heard. All bets are off!! We'd love it if you'd come down and listen/party with us!
Here's 4 U My Sweet Cosmic Friend, Bless U !!! I Just Made This Video & I Hope U Don't Mind Me Posting It ... As I Really Hope You'll Find Sum Enjoyment In It, Thanx So Much !!!
