HOME: The Woodwork.
AGE: Old enough to remember the acid revolution!
PROFESSION: Musical Freaks.
HOBBIES: Making a cult figure out of Sweet Pea Atkinson, hangin' out with Mitch Ryder, Doug Fieger, Ozzy Osbourne, Marshall Crenshaw, Wayne Kramer and Mel Torme (whew!), laughing at tornadoes, making Detroit rock-relevant again.
LAST BOOK READ: The Doors Of Perception by Aldous Huxley.
QUOTE: "You can't talk Shakespeare with a monkey."
PROFILE: Old high school pals from the suburbs, Don and David St. Was had a dream—a weird concept—that they put into action with an LP of strange funk music which has evolved into an LP of hodge-podge pop music with the strangest assortment of characters this side of The Mashed Maurauders. Woodwork squeaks and out come the freaks...!
BEER: Boy Howdy!
