I grew up surfing on the texas gulf coast
(yes there are waves in texas!) and thats why i skated.
i skated during the "original" days and on into
"old school" "mid school" whatever
you want to call it school. i started playing guitar in
elementary school and doing some sort of art as long as
i can remember.music art skating surfing are all the same
thing to me ... self expression .... for that matter,
life, is self expression.the first official band i was
in was the big boys (1978) .... from then til now? poison
13, bad mutha goose, jack o fire, lord high fixers, king
sound quartet, now time delegation, monkeywrench, total
sound group direct action committee.... etc....
i have helped bands here and in other countries record
their records since the late 80s and at this point the
number of bands (my extended family) has grown way into
the 100s. i am living proof that you do not know what
will happen next. publicly showing art other than flyers
for shows (which you can see some in the book f**ked up
and foto copied), flyers making statements,and record
covers and adds in fanzines is something that over the
last year , people seem interested in me doing , and ,
over the last year i have been involved in group shows
in LA.,San Fran., philadelphia, austin, portland and the
museum of contemporary art in virginia beach. two group
shows getting ready to happen are here in austin (rawk
show), and portland (wheelbite). here is my bio for the
RAWK show here "does it really matter who a person
is or what they have done in their past when it comes
to self expression? use whatever of your 5 senses that
you can to confront or ignore what is in front of you
because that is what it is all about ... YOU.... and your
reaction."
