I am a good trumpet player, and I play piano and guitar quite poorly. A lot of it attempts to be funny.
Why this name?
Because my real name belongs to a famous comedian, which is what I am trying to become.
Do you play live?
I have done more than 2000 gigs over the years. A special moment--I once played with John Lee Hooker.
How, do you think, does the internet (or mp3) change the music industry?
It lowers people standards for good audio.
Would you sign a record contract with a major label?
Yes, but I'd eventually get in a fight on an airplane, then do a bunch of cocaine and have a heart attack in a hotel room.
Your influences?
Zappa, Alice Cooper, Bill Monroe, Prince, Bowie, Peter Gabriel, Jimmy Juhn, Coltrane, Miles, Joni Mitchell, Dylan
Favorite spot?
Boston, San Francisco, Portsmouth New Hampshire
Equipment used:
I use Cakewalk Sonar 6 with Dimension mostly, some P5, and play awful guitar. My trumpets: Yamaha heavy wall, King Super 20, Bach Strad 37. My flugelhorn is a pro Yamaha with a Bahamian penny soldered to the D/C# trigger.
Anything else...?
Some of my music has swear words.
