LA Times Article:
Remember the name Mr.UNSTABL3? You know, Timothy Tackett, that Burger King employee who filmed himself bathing in the Xenia, Ohio, fast-food joint's utility sink? Well, Tackett is hoping you haven't forgotten about him.
Since posting the video in the summer of 2008, the eccentric YouTube celebrity has spent the last few months growing a rap music career. He released a full-length album under the Mr.UNSTABL3 moniker, titled "Show Me on the Doll," and threw a CD release party.
The BK firing seems to have soured Tackett on working in the food industry. But he hasn't heard a peep from the company since he lost his night-shift job, he said in an e-mail.
Music has become Tackett's full-time gig, and he's working on booking shows to play next year.
So, if you're a concert venue owner looking for a madcap hip-hop artist with experience disassembling fast-food fryers, you know the guy. And a dressing room may not be necessary -- as long as there's a roomy enough kitchen sink in the back.
