Meitz
New Album (Vertikal)
Yeah so it's not
my best recording ever but the Germans seem to dig it and it's
getting a lot of internet radio play. Do a google on "Meitz"
and "White Powder" and see what you can find. Plus pick
up the album, it's dope, and I'm not just saying it cause I'm
on it (trust me, royalties ain't flowin from Berlin).

Augenblick
Sick ass performance collective run by my buddy Sully aka Mephisto.
I’ve done like a couple dozen shows with ‘em and it’s
always nuts (imagine receiving nitrous from a mad scientist while
being spanked by a naughty nurse with video images, audio manipulation
and performance art colliding with poetry and you get a vague
idea). Way cool.

Music you need to check
out

Jersey representing! My buddies Jon and crew keeping it real out
by exit 9.

Meitz
Sick keyboard player and composer in Berlin. He’s played
with everyone from Jazzanova to your momma and is one of the pioneers
of C64. (BTW I appear on his next album if he ever gets his act
together and finishes mastering the damn thing!)

Robbie Seahag
The undisputed king of guitar manipulation and rubber band cocks.
Robbie has been in like a billion bands you might know, most recently
The Sound of Urchin and Project/Object. His solo stuff is…
well you check it out

Planeside
My buddy Ken’s (Jonies Butterfly) newest band blowing up
in CT.

Sound of Urchin
Robbie’s latest band, hard and fun and funny as hell.

Sicboy
CTHC at it’s finest. I’ve known John, Chris and Drew
forever, and I can tell you no one does it harder or better (wow
that sounds kinda perverse).

Elvis
McMan
Crazy punk bastards featuring my frightening buddy James Rockwood,
the first guy to do a hockey pull on me in 15 years who has an
annoying habit of calling me SoftWood (bastard…).

Chief Rocka
Awesome Ohio hip-hop collective blowing up in Akron, Cleveland,
and beyond. Lots of love guys.

Carl Restivo

Diane Downey
Good friend, mentor, forger of companies, Diane gives you all
the advice you’ll ever need to know about managing that
pesky bureaucratic mess you work in.

Loki Kevorkian (Rogue Scholars)
Loki is my favorite little bitch ass punk poet spoken word star
wannabee I know. For some reason the awesome Rogue Scholars let
him hang about. If you’re real nice he’ll probably
give you a copy of his latest book: Club Fascistland (which is
a Gay Wizard of Oz set in a dystopian New York, need I say more?)

Jillian Medoff
Wonderful lady and friend with two very good books wrecking the
literary world right now (heck they made her first Hunger Point
into a movie!).
http://jillianmedoff.com
Michelle Pauli
Guardian writer, sex guru, spiritual guide – I’m pretty
sure Michelle thinks I’m just some immature drunken American
poet (she’d be right) but I love her anyway.
http://www.amazon.co.uk
Drew
Trudeau
Wandering bass player poet minstrel. Keeping the open mic scene
flowing in CT as well as rocking out with Sicboy, Drew is definitely
one cool cat.
