So why the alias, "Bongo guy?"  Well, besides playing a drum kit, I'm a bongo player.  Several years ago, I was playing at a gig, and had just finished a solo.  A drunk in the audience stood up, stuck two fingers in his mouth, let out an ear-piercing whistle, and yelled, "BONGO GUY!!"  He then lost his balance, knocked over a chair and fell over it.  It was hilarious.  I had a lot of fun poked at me about that guy, along with the nickname he gave me but, as names go, it's better than some other things that I've been called.
