Awesome ... and sweet uke, too.

But having never seen him i guess i expected that he wouldn't be so much the morose, droopy-faced, impossibly dry and unsmiling artiste - and yet ... there it was!!

God bless.

Is this guy's mope shtick some kind of method-acting in-character thing? Or is that really his personality?

p.s. - Nick Cave and Peter Murphy called.

Great lyric - "Everyone you despise will die soon/Smile"

Props to the anchorman for keeping the interview going...not an easy task with that dude.

Gotta say, like that song, he should ditch the usual thing he does on his records and do this full-time.

2: That uke seems to be some sort of resonator, national steel thing shrunk down in the Wonka factory and relieved of two strings. I didn't know Gallo made a ukulele grenache...

Lastly, I think he is actually an animatronic Harvey Pekar character.

How's that for some obscure, name-dropping science, my lakizzles?!?
