Bio:
(Quick edit up front. My new record is called "There, I Said It!' and is to be released February 20th, 2007. I'm a recording artist, published author and am known to be somewhat other than normal as the following essay will attest.)
My name is Tommy Glynn Womack. Skot Willis once said I was the craziest person hed ever met who had his life together. Todd Snider says Im the only person hes ever met in Nashville whos crazier than he is. So I must be crazy, I guess. I cant tell. Crazy for most folks must just be what normal feels like for me.
I make records, I write. I play shows. And being an artist of, shall we say, minor repute, I am also compelled to spend my Mondays through Fridays at a company that employs 18,000 people, maintains a zero-tolerance drugs and alcohol policy, and - thankfully for me so far - an apparent zero-enforcement of such. Hell, Id love them to piss-test me, actually; Ill walk in there with a fresh hot cup of urine and a fistfull of prescriptions and say "yeah, Im good for that, im good for that, and Im good for that! And as for THAT, well thats to keep me off the third-floor ledge of the building I work in, naked, with a spray-paint can in my hand and a whole lot to get off my chest!
More Facts! I live in Nashville, Tennessee, USA with my wife Beth, two cats, Pete & Shelley, and our beautiful boy Nathan.
From 1985 through 1992 I played in a band called Government Cheese.
From 1992 through 1994 I played in a band called the bis-quits.
In 1995, my book Cheese Chronicles: The True Story of a Rock and Roll Band Youve Never Heard Of was published.
I have two "hobbies." Firstly, I like to keep read about, and speculate on, the Historical Jesus, the real guy, who he really was, what he really said, etc. reading stuff by J.D. Crossan, A. N. Wilson and John Shelby Spong regarding such. Thats because I spent the first twenty-odd years of my life so deep in the Bible belt I didnt even know there was one. Jesus was on every wall of my house and oftentimes twice. I dont live much like that now, but needless to say it leaves its residual notions to be worked through in ones mind. If youd like my primary messiah pondering, click here. Otherwise, Ill trouble you no further with it.
Secondly, I boast a reasonably well-honed facility for classic-era New York Mafia Geneology: the Gambinos, the Genoveses, the Bonannos, the Lucheeses and the Columbos. I like keeping up with those guys, you know, scannning the papers, keeping up with whos in charge, whos been arrrested, whos been killed, etc. I dont know why, but I do so love to keep up with such matters. I can probably name you all the leaders of the Gambino Crime Family in order since its inception, from Albert Anastasia onward, and most of the other families as well, for that matter. If you care to gossip (about the retired ones, thanks), e-mail me.
