Before the musical schism that divided us I was the driving force behind "Pole, Wind, and Fire". The bastards hopped the touring bus while I was making pee-pee at a small cafe in Mexico, changed the Pole to Earth (I *still* don't know where the hell that came from *or* what it means), and swiped my contract with the record label. Bastards.

This was for the original debut album cover "Groovin with the Pole".

Love the disco gold medallion!

How do you have so many props? I mean really...do you just have afro wigs, shotguns, flutes, giant fish hooks and tattoo sleeves just lying around?

Yeah, you can't trust anyone in the music industry. They dropped me from the Spice Girls when they found out I am an Australian.

... or maybe it was my beard. ;-)
