About Me:
I review music that has its base in garage rock and earlier r & b influences. The Rickenbacker guitar is a basic guide for the best rock 'n' roll from The Byrds to The Who to The Ramones (Johny played one) to The Plimsouls to The Jam to The Gruesomes to Sons of Hercules and back again.

Favorite Music:
Almost anything that has it's origins in basic, r & b based three chord rock that's loud and fun. To me, rock 'n' roll took two distinct paths that either followed Delta Blues or R & B. The best rock 'n' roll was the latter path as it spawned garage, early psychedelic rock, punk, and powerpop.
Favorite Movies:
The Future is Unwritten, Blade Runner, Quadrophenia, You're Gonna Miss Me, This Is England, Minority Report, Wings of Desire, Faraway (So Close), Tommy, A Clockwork Orange, Harold and Maude, Borat, Young Frankenstein, Blazing Saddles, etc.
Favorite GaragePunk.com Podcast(s):
I'm too busy reviewing stuff to sit back and listen to music other than the occasional diversions.

Too busy to listen to our podcasts? C'mon, man... in case you weren't aware, the Hideout is the social network of GaragePunk.com, and GaragePunk.com is home of the GaragePunk Podcast network (hence the question above). Have you listened to ANY of our shows yet? Because that's sort of the point of the site (and the question). Let me know... Thanks!
