Hi there.

So I'm another of the many minds tainted by Tiny Toons over a decade ago, and I've kind of been seething They Might Be Giants from my pores ever since.

At the age of 16 - long ago in a far off land - I was inspired by Mr. Linnell to teach myself the accordion. Now, thanks to him, I have been upsetting neighbors for years and years and years. Much of my time on it is spent playing and learning almost the entirety of the TMBG canon. I live in NYC, where Dial-A-Song is only a local call (choke on it!!!).

This site kicks butt. And it's one of those good arch-of-the-foot kicks, not those jabby toe stabs. I hate those.

Hey, if you feel so inclined, go check out the music on my website, particularly the track "Missing a Quarter of my Head" (which, interestingly enough, was written and recorded long before Violin).

You will notice that I post quite a lot of guitar tabs - the fruit of both my accordion dalliances and rummaging over at tmbg.org, which has sat rather peacefully at the bottom of the ocean for the last 6 years.

Everyone have a good time.
