InfluencesPin cushions. Man, I hate those things. They make my cuticles itch. I am strangely attracted to them.

I like people that play Accordion but not like Myron Floren. I like it when they barely know how to play.

Hot Jazz. Think Baby Dodds on Washboard or a full kit.

Things that dont sound quite right.

Hillbilly tunes prior to the "Nashville sound", any dead blues guy, Tom Waits, and Greg Mcintosh.

Sounds LikeA drunk guitar player falling on a set of drums, standing up all bloody then sitting at the bar trying to talk to you.

   About Rollie Tussing "One Man Band"
"So now do you see why books are hated and feared? They show the pores in the face of life. The comfortable people want only wax moon faces, poreless, hairless, expressionless. We are living in a time when flowers are trying to live on flowers, instead of growing on good rain and black loam. Even fireworks, for all their prettiness, come from the chemistry of the earth. Yet somehow we think we can grow, feeding flowers and fireworks, without completing the cycle back to reality."

~Ray Bradbury

"That a man can take pleasure in marching in formation to the strains of a band is enough to make me despise him. He has only been given his big brain by mistake; a backbone was all he needed. This plague-spot of civilization ought to be abolished with all possible speed."

~ Einstien

Come watch us play an ass kicking set of wizard rock wearing nothing but a cape and a flaming electric guitar.(maybe some socks) The puppet show with sex crazed unicorns doing battle with flying witches high on teenage sugar wolf pills will surely add to the excitement.

I have a mix cd with Beulah Land on it. I told Stella it was Rollie. She said, "Rollie." I won't tell my mother she said your name before Grandma.
How the hell are you?

How ya been?

Please tell me your smarter then this...........

Ed was in trouble. He forgot his wedding anniversary. His wife was REALLY
angry.
She told him, 'Tomorrow morning I expect to find a gift in the driveway
that goes from 0 to 200 in less then 6 seconds AND IT BETTER BE THERE!!'

The next morning Ed got up early and left for work. When his wife woke up
she looked out the window and sure enough there was a box gift-wrapped in
the middle of the driveway. Confused, the wife put on her robe and ran out
to the driveway, and brought the box back in the house. She opened it and
found a brand new bathroom scale.

Ed has been missing since Friday. Please pray for him.
