Here’s a track I created with some friends of mine back around 2000 while living at the Brooklynhaus with Johnny Mayday. This was the house with the kinda-creepy-but-ultimately-cool secret room in the back of the house. There was a room at this place that you could only get to through either John’s room or [...]
Mayday & Zfunk
I was able to get to see my friends Johnny Mayday, (aka) John Coyle, and Zfunk (aka Zache Davis.) John and I went out to dinner in “Little Ethiopia,” his neighborhood in Los Angeles. I had a fantastic time with them and miss them both.

Watch the video, which includes the original music track “Earlier …“
At the moment this still was grabbed, Mayday was yelling at our friend, Tim Tompt, about how “nobody bit his fucking [...]

Oklahoma
48 in x 24 in Oil on Masonite
This was painted for Johnny Mayday after he and I drove out to Seattle for the first time when he first moved to Seattle from Tampa. On the drive, we passed through Oklahoma, and all of the brownness of Oklahoma. There were, though, pretty little flowers [...]
