The guitarist with the legendary Continental Drifters and Lulu and the Broadsides landed in NYC in '76, becoming a roadie for the Cramps and living with band members Bryan Gregory and Nick Knox. By the '80s he was playing guitar with iconoclastic vocal stylist Klaus Nomi and touring internationally with Lydia Lunch. His tenure with the Dream Syndicate's Steve Wynn brought him to L.A., where he fell in with the early Drifters at Raji's.
