this picture was taken for the cover of geggy tah's third album, "into the oh". that's a metal folding chair that they converted to a rocker. they then put pickups all over it, ran it through samplers and loops and used it as part of the drum set. this picture was taken in tommy's driveway, and originally just had the cement ground. the art director photoshopped in waves and while we liked the idea, tommy and i didn't like the notion of being beaten by a computer. so we went back and reshot the thing – built a little pool out of a tarp and 2x4's, put the chair in the middle of it and it worked pretty well. many thanks to keith tamashiro, a wonderful designer, for his infinite patience in helping us get this just right.
