Hell, I had my best friend make a photo of me singing into my brush while drying my hair when I was about 17. Also, i had a whole carnival barker bit choreographed to Emerson, Lake and Palmer's "Karn Evil 9 (Second Iimpression)" from "Brain Salad Surgery." One night a friend was over and I did it for her.

I played air/prop guitar, keyboard and drums for much of my adult life, and never really cared if anyone was watching. Just another reason my mom thought there was something wrong with me, I suppose. But, man, this kid was born for the stage.
