In addition to playing guitar with me in the Second City's most perverted band, TUMS, he's done time in Z-PAK, spearheaded solo recordings under the moniker MARATHON '77, and is currently on tour with the Rustbelt purveyors of maniacism REAL SHOCKS. On top of all this, he's a lovely person and talented photog with a knack for capturing the moment without disrupting it. Here's but a smattering of his masterful space-time ​containment.</p><figure class="kg-card kg-image-card kg-width-full kg-card-hascaption"><img
