I apologize about the metal music, but the actor is very familiar and I can even hear his voice. I have seen him in lots of music as a character actor and I just can’t place what was the most recent thing I saw him in.

My monitor is on its last legs and so is quivery, and video images and so forth are dark, but from what little I could see my guess would be [Tim Thomerson](http://images.google.com/images?as_q=&hl=en&output=images&svnum=10&btnG=Google+Search&as_epq=tim+thomerson&as_oq=&as_eq=&imgtype=&imgsz=&as_filetype=&imgc=&as_sitesearch=&safe=off&as_st=y). ---

[/QUOTE] nope. definately not the guy. I also recognize the actor the OP asks about, but I can’t remember where I know him from for the life of me. I am almost certain that I’ve seen him play a cop somewhere ---

Could it be [Seymour Cassel](http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0001025/) ? Or perhaps [Dennis Farina](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dennis_Farina) ? ---
