YO!  I’m super stoked to announce that I’ll be playing keys, glockenspiel, percussion, and singing bvs for SCROTE this upcoming Monday (S.F.) and Tuesday (L.A.).  The music and musicians are top notch.  I’m extremely happy to be involved.

Here are all the details.  Read on.  These shows are going to be really special.  Actually, Scrote taught me a new tactic to save energy for a special day.  He said to minimize it….for example, I could say…These shows are going to be totally ho-hum, no big deal.  It’s basically delayed emotional ejaculation.
