Yes, I still have the shirt. But, it smells like shit. The referee shirt and Erik's baseball "sleeves" were popular before the pajama outfits and dresses.

The Cheeses From France - A Dark History With a Semi Soft Creamy Center. Pt 2

The first live show we performed has become a part of Hoosier lore.

Most of what you've heard is true.
Most of what you've heard is false.

We were booked to play at Third Base with The Retarded Gods, Dow Jones And The Industrials and several other bands not important enough to be remembered.

We decided to play our "hit" and our "Hit" only.

We would play it until we were physically stopped.

We would start a aural revolution with repercussions that are felt to this day.

If this is what you h… Continue

The Cheeses From France - A Dark History With a Semi Soft Creamy Center. Pt 1

Controversy followed us like rabid paparazzi after a teenage skank Yet our actions left a nuclear blast sized footprint that was trodden upon by all who followed us.

Where to begin?


It was the best of times, It was the worst of… Continue

I worked with the Geico Caveman yesterday.

Since these blogs seem to be kinda popular I'll try to add to them from time to time.

Yesterday I worked on a Geico commercial with the caveman and tennis legend Billie Jean King.

Look closely in the crowd behind the umpire and you may spot my sunburned visage.

The caveman wears a hair shirt under his clothes and they darken the hair on his legs with charcoal powder.
And all this time I just thought he was Armenian!!


It was a very laid back affair,The caveman seems to be more popular than I… Continue

Hey John! Saw Elvis most recently May 16, 2008, with the Police in Orlando. In the $200+ ticket section people were so rude. I was standing thu Elvis, and people were bitching. They wanted to see the Police. Also caught him a few times at House of...
