bio:
W/ Boy Dirt Car:
Yes, I was a component of Boy Dirt Car, having started the band in 1983 with Darren Brown. BDC released numberous LP's and cassettes:
Split lp w/ F/i (1985) RRRecords (re-released 2004, Lexicon Devil)
Winter: (1986) RRRecords(re-released 2004, Lexicon Devil)
Live w/out a body (1989) RRRecords
Instinctual (1994) RRRecords
Heat Rig (2002) Lexicon Devil
Split LP and Winter CD re-release (2003) Lexicon Devil
toured the western US in 1987 and disbanded
But, to be fair here, Boy Dirt Car continues and they're being lead now by Darren Brown. Yes, I was part of that BDC from inception (1983) to the hiatus (1989). No, i am not part of the re-engineered BDC, having signed over BDC to Mr. Brown in, what, about 2005. And since then Mr. Brown has continued on in admirable fashion. Very nice stuff. So, if you want to catch up on that go to:

Between 1990 and 2004 I entered a vegetative state, indulged in art, writing. Released a few things under the radar. Lost contact. Became something of a luddite.
Seeing that now that I am that close to the finish line, I guess i see somethings that still need to be addressed. That, of course, accounts for the recent flurry of activity. Mortality. There's your motivation.
there are, of course, numerous other recordings I made, self-released cassettes during the period between 1986-1989, all of which are being cataloged with a planned re-release through http://www.catharticprocess.com/ Stay tuned.
