Quote from Merrill J.
This past weekend I had the valued opportunity to play with Merrill J. Miller, vocalist and guitarist hailing from Iowa, but living in our fair country (Alaska). An ad hoc assembly was put together by bass player, Pat "The Rat" Wendt including drummer, Marilyn Clement and yours truly. None of us had played together before. As we were setting up, two figures of authority in the small club we were to play in told me of their previous experience with loud bands. When I passed this on to Merrill, he stated the above quote, which were the first words concerning his musical theory shared with me. They truly were spoken with the voice of authority, without malice towards anyone and yet without mercy for the stupidity of hurting people with sound.

Tim Roth
Tim Roth. I saw him first in Rob Roy. He was a very good bad guy. Now he stars in a tv show called Lie To Me. The basis of that show has to do with face mapping and being able to read the involuntary muscle reactions to diverse emotional stimulus. A good portion of the book Blink, by Malcom Gladwell, is devoted to this recent science.
