I can't stop listening to him since I started 2 years ago. Music makes you so happy, plus he's awesome live

I got his 1st cd and it was ok but the songs all sounded the same. checked out the second cd and it was the same as the 1st cd...

haven't listened to him in a long time. not even sure where the cd is...

oh yeah, current track is: Andy Pickford - Belvedere.

my Winamp playlist has 18,167 (about 115 GB of music) in it atm. thats about my whole collection right now, minus a few cds i don't really care for. I've got everything from rock to industrial to celtic to progressive. i think i even have some frank sinatra and dean martin in there too.

there's a band i discovered called Of The Wand & The Moon. Its kinda gothy due to the lyrics and the singer's voice, but the instrumentals are great and work pretty well with his voice.

you won't find country or rap though.

Watch the video, it's funny and shows you his energy

It's an aquired "taste" ---I liked him a tiny bit when I first listened to him, and as I kept listening, it grew on me. And no, I'm not a hardcore metal rock fan or whatever, the music is so happy and he's supposed to be a cool guy.

He broke his foot while on tour, but refused to go home and even signed autographs in the ambulance b/c he didn't want to disappoint his fans. He toured the rest of the tour in a wheelchair :)
