1adam12

Ahem, in my best 3rd person voice.1adam12 is known to create in the key of Z. Poetry with props. Din with some verbal travail. Born in Bergen County NJ, 1adam12 had lived in Upstate NY, The greater Metropolitan area of NYC, St Thomas USVI, and on a large Schooner sailing the USVI/BVI's, Annapolis Md, and Atlantic City NJ. "Nomadic divorced parents and an uncontrollable wanderlust since birth will do that" he had once stated.To compensate for the relatively chaotic childhood.the concept and practice of "air guitar" propelled this young person to put off learning the actual subjective logistics of the guitar until age 20. According to an early 80's Nick Kent article, 1Adam12 reported to him that: "Dominoes lined up, Urgh a Music War came on TV.I memorized and analyzed all those bands and then my obsessive record buying began I'll have to say that those band family trees became biblical to me". A 70's Fender bass was bestowed upon Adam in the summer of 85' by longtime inspirational highschool pal, and future bandmate Pstek (now known to himself as the modern Alexander Calder of Wire Art). Adam could not sing anything apart from anchoring lines, so the bass was eventually abandoned for the guitar. Later, punk rock/hardcore and some quasi post proto punk (QPPP) figuratively split his head open. In 1986 in addition to embarking on a successful local DJ career on WLFR 91.7 FM, The quirky 3 member pop band NOisE MuSeum began shortly thereafter with a 5 chord knowledge, and later evolved into the twin guitar drive and 7 chord knowledge of the Oxygen Tent. O2 disbanded in 2000.Since then, 1adam12 has contributed to a host of recording/engineering projects as well as gigging out in a number of capacities with: Jumpship, Malcolm Tent, an obscure Monkees cover band "The Drunkees", The Enemies of the Secret Hide-out, The Feelies-esque/Glenn Mercer Project. 2008 saw 1a12 in a musical outfit called "Qatsi". He is currently looking for like minded individuals to jambo.
He has been in some noteworthy live and recording situations.He could name drop a little, but that has become rather boringIf you get a talkin' to 1a12 you will find that he has at least a few degrees seperation to something of interest.
All comes into play when 1a12 pulls into formation. Despite an unpredictable vocabulary, this relatively un-well read red man, has been managing to pump out a significant catalogue of material, he generally regards 40% of it unlistenable. The remaining 60% he finds to be substantial to himself in some regard, which keeps him going.
