Rochee Sarno

About me:

Hello dahlinks,
Enjoy V3, the third recorded version of Sarno Fever...

Righto, the drugs, electro shock therapy and my painting have been incredibly helpful in overcoming the most difficult period of my life and I am now ready to get back to more "upbeat" toonz, that will form the basis of our next musical offerings. I am back on track and up for fun!

The band and I look forward enormously to our gig in Osnabruck and meeting up with you fabulous fans again, plus those very naughty boys from Mad Sin and Batmobile. Should be a blast! Unlike most cult heros, I will be in the main bar after our set, watching my heros, buy me a beer if you want!

My new artwork and The Golden Dawn are available online on Ebay, so grab yourself a bargain right now, and a genuine original work of art, from a genuine original madman. You can see examples of my work on the slideshow on this page.

Lots of love, Rochee Sarno
