**OH MY GOD.** I seem to recall that MWH’s had a hit called “Pop Goes The World” several years after “Safety Dance.” Am I correct or have the years of mindless debauchery finally started to take their deadly toll?

Well, the last band I was in, the other 3 members all died within an 18 month span: 1) Our drummer, along with his girlfriend, was killed by a drunk driver on a Wednesday afternoon at about 3:35, 2) Our bass player had a brain embolism while at lunch in a dining hall over in Cambridge and was dead before he hit the table, 3) Our guitarist and his wife were killed in a car accident in India, so unfortunately the answer is no.

Plus, I don’t play any instruments, I sing.😃

My band Dr. Kissinger’s Homemade Chocolate Penises does a heavier version of “Antarctica” but I don’t think I’m Ivan material.

Playing GEE-TAR!
