Fuckin' Howdy!

That was a catch phrase from my first band, the House Levelers. It came from this weird surfy-y instrumental song called Cliff Goes Surfin', where we intoned "Fuckin' howdy, let's go surfing" in the breaks. I have no recollection how that phrase developed, but I'm sure drugs were involved. For the hell of it, I just created a MySpace page for the band. We were active in New Orleans and the South from 1988 - 1992.

We were a very weird band, and I'm not even sure if we were good - but, we were very wild and pretty popular, and I regularly hear from old fans who find me on my own MySpace page. I uploaded six songs to our profile, so you can now judge for yourself....
