Yeah - I have some fun -best of all, some folks Gainesville who were planning a Tribute album for Buck Owens BEFORE his passing got my stage name from some girls who got onstage and danced around me at the show(they thought the girls were part of the act but I didn't know them) and from the stage name they tracked me down and approached me to contribute a song. I'm probably gonna do "Pfft! You Were Gone" sort of Reggae style with a punk flavour perhaps. I'm shoppingfor an appropriate cowboy hat to fit in with the Carribbean cowboy look I need for the photo shoot next month. There's talk of some bigger names than mine expressing interest in the album - I think they want all Florida artists. Not that I'm hinting at Petty being involved or anything.

Now I'm working on some NikkiSudden songs for this weekend's gig.

You should definitely start a punk band. Especially in Austin. Some great music comes from there but I'm not familiar with Austin punk.

Though I was seeing a lot of Dead shows atthetime my first band was a hardcore band and we did multiband gigs with some major league punk bands forpractically nomoney. But it was great fun. ILove playing punk songs to rednecks here.
