"Where bad music happens to good people."
Why this name?
The Ice House Cultural Center in Dallas, Texas is where I teach guitar. It is also the site of the birthplace of the 7-Eleven stores, so think of us when you have that Slurpee.
Do you play live?
Yes, I play live but not this stuff, but who knows? These tunes--some of them, anyway--would be fun to expand and play live, but please know that these tunes were created as a joke in response to some guys in a Mac forum I used to frequent. They swore "complete" tunes could not be created with Garageband 1.0 so I made these with no edits, changes, and in default mode.
How, do you think, does the internet (or mp3) change the music industry?
Everyone has digital ears and a digital brain now. We won't even go into the instant gratification that the internet provides for all of us, everywhere.
Would you sign a record contract with a major label?
Yes.

Your influences?
The Ramones, David Bowie, The Beatles, The Clash, George Clinton, Motown, Talking Heads seem to be my musical heartbeat.
However, I'm a classical guitarist by day so I'd be remiss if I didn't mention LAGQ, Sharon Isbin, Andrew York, and John Williams.
