About Me

"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

My Interests

Music:

Member Since: 8/20/2005
Band Website: rollietussing.com
Influences: Pin 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 Like: A drunk guitar player falling on a set of drums, standing up all bloody then sitting at the bar trying to talk to you.
Record Label: http://www.embassyhotelrecords.com/home/
Type of Label: Indie

My Background and Lifestyle

Occupation: Music Artist (Folk / Country / Blues)

Another Page, More Tunes
