Crud, you makin' this stuff up?

Lee Marvin is the coolest guy in the known universe. The only guy who has ever starred in classic film noirs and comedy musical westerns.

"Emperor of the North" is maybe the greatest film ever made. Well, it's in the top 5. Top 3.

Did you know he used to live in a cheapo beach apartment over Adam West? West was the party king but even then Marvin scared the crap out of him with the 24 hour nonstop out of control drinking binge parties he was throwing...

Hey, does anybody wanna see the Tiki Thomas band, Dr. Skavra on April 1st? They're sort of more angry and loud than mellow and ukulele, but what the heck?

Nope! All true, man. Chris Marvin is a drinkin', party lovin' man, just like his daddy, and still lives in Santa Rosa, frequenting the Belvedere and the Tradewinds in Cotati. There was only one other drummer that added that special pop to the whole ensemble(Jesse Wickman), but the most memorable nights were with Chris Marvin. Crazy, cool shit, man. The jazz just crept into you like a rapist through an open window above the fire escape, and held your senses hostage. What more could you do but emote? Made me feel like a man with an 80 IQ, hearing "Freebird" for the first time.

On seeing Skavra, I'll put my best foot forward.
