I posted in the old one, but I don't mind making an @ss of myself help a new one get started.

Here's an older one when I was slightly more clean cut and probably 30 lbs lighter:



I play more intensely while stoned or something:

Thanks! It's funny... people really seem to like that one, and I honestly think it's our worst song! I like "Live Free" and "Kung Fu Guitar" loads more, but I really appreciate your comment!

Long, long ago, you weren't anyone until you had James J. Kriegsmann (NYC) do your B&W publicity glossies.

I love the fact that this was during a relatively tame song. Lovely shot of my SUB

Stupid I can do

One from our last photoshoot....it didn't make it into our press pack.




One of myself and our guitar player, Sarah.....there are hundreds of photos of us two pulling stupid faces post-gig.




Chilling out backstage when I was foolish enough to think dreadlocks wouldn't look stupid on me!





I'm pretty good at looking stupid

Here's a pic of a band I was in back in 1980. (I'm the one with the stars on the shirt.)
