Subject: RE: Weird musicians we have known...
Nearly all of the ones I know are weird in some way (I mean this with the sincerest affection). Socks routinely wears two hats (one with a brim, with a stocking cap over it)--a friend of mine once described him as "the guy who always looks disoriented".

Ian was a physicist until he burned out, now he plays the guitar and builds insanely detailed ship models.

When I was in a band, we got together for lunch one day and the menu included homemade banana bread, Cheerios (eaten dry from the box), uncooked grits in cold water (Molly underestimated the cooking time, but we ate them anyway), grapes, and something that Brian made from everything he found in his refrigerator--soup, noodles, vegetables, tuna--eaten cold because the container wasn't microwaveable. Nobody batted an eye. Brian said that someone should write a blues song about cold grits.
