He was on the cover of some punk-oriented magazine last year or something. He was in music for quite a while.

Yea, I was just about to say this is where I know him from, other than SNL and Eurotrip.

He also played drums on a Spinanes tour once upon a time.

I saw him perform at this variety show called Tinkle a little while back and he came out as Saddam Hussein. The shtick was that Saddam was a British mod guitarist though. He kept talking about being away for a while recently... working on a new album. IT was pretty hilarious actually.

He's got a show on MTV2 this weekend where he plays his favorite videos or something. He directed something for that Portland band The Helio Sequence so he's debuting it or something.

well, so do the people that named their magazine "Punk Planet"

He dated Sally Timms from the Mekons for several years as well, which sorta proves he's not gay like everyone seems to think.
