Favorite Issue Of No-Fi "Magazine" and why:
The earliest issues are my favorite because we were still doing paper and it was fun sitting around the lunch tables at school thinking of cool and strange things to fit in the very few pages available to us. The curent one is pretty rad too if I can ever get it finished.
If you could design your own issue, what would the theme be and why?:
What a minute...I design all the issues! Well I can't exactly tell you all the themes to future issues right? I can tell you that we have an actual Three-D issue coming up, and next issue is called "The Theme Issue" and will feature our own Sabrina Cognata on the cover. Shhhhh.. It's a secret.
Favorite Band, Artist, Writer, and/or Coverstar featured in No-Fi "Magazine":
Well I can't name favorites obviously. I'm lucky to get to work with all these great talented people. Quin is great on No-Fi "Radio". Sabrina is my favorite new writer. Ryan can't ever seem to do wrong. I do the photography on most of the issues from the last few years, but Don Spiro is my favorite photographer who has let me use his work on our covers.

RESUME: Played either percussion or drums for Invisible Chains (1983-1985), Colleen Pancake Experience (1983-84), Neon Veins (1984-85), Sons of Damien (2004-present), El Camino College jazz band and big band (1997-2001); 4 track projects in which I attempt to play and sing everything are: Halo of Foreskin (1989-1990), Ark Spurting Blood (1994-present), The Miners (1994-1997) me and Mark Hecht, Only Children from Deth Star (2004-end) I sang, girls played drums. I also make art, collages, photography, and silkscreens. I enjoy creating firework pinatas and home explosives.
Favorite Issue Of No-Fi "Magazine" and why:
The ones with Creekbird and Nora Keyes. They are both good story tellers.
If you could design your own issue, what would the theme be and why?:
"Imagiary Theme Parks"...to see what ideas people would come up with for themes and rides. I prefer one shot bands that last a month to bands that stay around forever. I like people who create new types of insturments and aren't afraid of making a spectacle of themselves. Rock music is not for self-conscious shoe gazers but for lunatics and comedic malcontents.
