I feel like I don't need to explain this one.

My name came from the old CarTrek series that Hoovie and Tavarish had. I was starting my own YouTube channel and Facebook pages because I was planning on documenting my EV adventures in my Bolt. That came to a screeching stop when my former wife developed cancer and our trips tapered off. Hopefully will revive it when I get my Slate.

I cleaned up my avatar picture today after someone worried about me a few weeks ago. :)

I will also drop the mystery a bit. My name is not tubes, but it is a name of a rock band. This, perhaps, will dox me on my age. But I've (un)fortunately already done that on other posts. I.e. early to mid 60s baby.

Your parents named you Creedence? Groovy man.

LOL! Join me at the Clearwater, FL Revival. Maybe Slate will show up for test drives since half of our freakin' preorders seem to be from there!

(I'm cheering for you, Florida. Doin' my best.)

I saw Vince Welnick’s first show with the Grateful Dead. Last one too. Several in between lol. Tried to talk to him after a solo show in Indianapolis but he was too busy. Shame that he passed too early. Seemed to be very bad luck to play keys for the Dead. Like being a drummer for Spinal Tap.

He was an integral part of The Tubes sound. Saw them in concert twice, and each time that man smoked more than I thought was possible in two hours. Unfortunately, it did him in. RIP, Vince.

(BTW, for those who know his complex story with The Dead and his eventual death by suicide, I still think it was his declining health that ultimately did him in.)
