Did he get slapped to death by his ex-wife or what?

I met that dude in 92, I use to manage a clothing store in Hawthorne mall at the time, he came in with some young blonde and purchased a shit load of clothes. He was talking about how he was going to make that blonde chick a great singer. I should have asked if he would slap the shit out of her too.:D

I sold him a couple cable boxes back in 01. He was cool as hell, bought 4 with no discount wanted. I could hear singing in the background he said he was in his studio in his house. The whole time he was talking to me he was on the crapper and he was yelling at some women to bring him his credit card. They did and apologized for the wait. Funny Guy I dont think he changed alot over the years.
He also sent me 4 tickets to some blues festival just to say thanks.
Cool guy by me on the phone but I am sure he was good at "selling" himself or an image.

I had no idea he was in my neck of the woods...
