Who I'd like to meet: People who can make me laugh ... People who can make me dance ... People who can make me go "hmmmm ..." ... or at least folks who will come see me play records now and then.
I'm also starting a band called Kool and the Gang of Four. We're going to play "Jungle Boogie" in the style of "Not Great Men" and "Love Is Like Anthrax" in the style of "Ladies Night". Let me know if you want to play bass.
