Here's Eric. Or Erick.

My high-school friend Costanza (Cotita to her friends) asked for more pictures of my "handsome" son. Well, how I can I refuse an old New Rochellean?

Here are a couple of shots of Eric that I think won't embarrass him or anybody else, plus the cover of Golden Error's album.  These guys are pretty hardcore or old school or something.  It's in vinyl.  Also downloadable for those who have thrown out their turntables, given them to their son, or are too young to know what a turntable is.

A final thought: Be careful what you wish for.

Turntables and shitty low-res pix.  What a world my son lives in. 

Striking the rockstar pose.  It's either a) anthemic or b) he's telling a member of the audience where to find the bathroom.

Eric is the one on the right doing the early-Che Guevara impersonation.  I guess the other one's an avid fan (?!)

Another crappy low-res pic.  I think that crowd is too pure to use a digital camera.  

Seriously now, here are some lyrics he wrote a few years ago.  He told me the backstory and made me weep.  His Cleveland band, Tokyo Storm Warning, recorded it.

Sabotage on the Telephone Line They said you couldn't do it All that way across the ocean They said you'd never do it "There's too much water there" They said you'd never do it All that wire across the ocean They said you'd never do it But I've seen that look in your eyes before On that day, you sailed away Scotland to Newfoundland 1500 nautical miles Deepest depths charged On that day September 25th, 1956 Heard your voice Crackling down the line Everyday Mid-afternoon In the sun room Heard your voice Crackling down the line Everyday In the sun room Mid-afternoon Your voice like a ghost And then it.....stopped! SABOTAGE ON THE TELEPHONE LINE (x6) Miscellaneous anarchists Claimed credit for this ...................................................... Now they've got microchips A million words in half a second Now they've got satellites Control your thoughts in half a second Oh how I miss those days Of copper wire Oh how I miss your eyes But they are closed forever......
