  • It's possible that Doug and you form the soberest rhythm section on the planet. How does that feel? Boring when you put it that way.
  • All-time favorite song? Mr. Brownstone - GnR, great riff, killer cowbell, passionate lyrics.
  • How Did You Get the Nickname "Kernel"? I lived on a farm for a while in the middle of a corn field hence the reference to Kernel of Corn.
  • After being in this band, will you even consider letting your kids so much as touch a musicial instrument? I think this band serves as a warning in and of itself to kids everywhere.

  • What random thoughts go through your head during a Red Woody show? Are we in the 2nd or 3rd set? What song are we playing? Did Jeff grow or paint on that mustache? Why are drummers so damn cool?
