BW: What were you doing before music?

W: I was doing a lot of drawing. And my demon in my head made me hit some old people in the head with a chair. I don't do that anymore, music changed my life. I'm the daddy of rock 'n' roll!

Gwahahaha! That made me laugh so hard that spit flew out of my mouth. God Bless Wesley Willis. \m/

Wesley, in a nutshell, was a big black guy plagued with chronic schizophrenia. He made a living doing landscape drawings of Chicago and New York, until one day he came across a Casio keyboard and started writing songs based on the built-in demo. He'd write songs about everything from Alanis Morrisette to Batman, and always end a song with "Rock over London, rock on Chicago" followed by a slogan such as "Subway! Eat fresh!" He would headbutt people instead of shaking their hands. He died of leukemia last year(this year?). It was very very sad.

I got hit in the head with a chair once.

Good times!

It was by a "special" kid. All I heard was, "You son of a bitch!" Then, whack! It was so funny. It hurt, but I was laughing so hard.
