Artist description I guess I would have to say that the band actually exists as only me. I can't seem to get a full instrument base of people willing to play in their underwear. The music that you're able to download actually consists of me, my brother Kenny Burck, and several friends who could be called upon to play and perform, but no one really wants to be famous and inspirational like me and so I travel the country in underwear performing alone as of yet. I aspire and am committed to being the "most celebrated entertainer of all time," specializing in movies, t.v./ comedy and, and, and, music, but will take what I can get. No sense in acting like I'm not willing to look desperate!!!

Music Style Country

Musical Influences I know it sounds odd being that I'm a singer/songwriter/performer, but I rarely listen to music at all and don't remember a time when it ever really fascinated me like normal people, but how can a guy who runs around the country in his underwear be that normal? I do remember going to the Kiss concert at Riverfront Coliseum in Cincinnati at age 9 in 1979 and I have met the Judas Priest, Motley Crew and Iron Maiden as my older brother, the one I looked up to in my youth, took me to all the heavy metal concerts. I also remember listening to the Beatles and Leonard Skynard and the Eagles when my mother would play her albums.

Artist History Dude/Dudette, you know I tried everything under the sun to try and get famous. I started out trying to be a supermodel on the cover of GQ as they say. I moved to NYC to live in rat-infested motels/hotels and kitchenettes while shooting photos with every gay photograper in the city who would take my picture for free to barter on free nude photos. Then I tried to be a star going in and out of Hollywood to be a moviestar with equal luck, but I was never willing to work my way up the ladder of any career believing full heartedly that I am a star today and always was. I know it can sound shallow, but I can tell you that I am most willing to work like a son of a buck and do daily I can assure you! Today is 10/23/00 and so far I have gone to court to rid myself of a "public alarm offense," I busted out of a limousine at the MTV video awards to have my photo taken as the Naked Cowboy by the papperazzi before being arrested.I then went and did a commercial as the Naked Cowboy for SprintPCS, then I played guitar in my underwear on Times Square for two and a half hours getting another quick spot on MTV and several thousand photos taken by tourists and some from local newspapers and such. I drove for over five-and-a-half hours in NYC traffic and I drove here to NYC yesterday, a thirteen hour drive on only three hours of sleep, the usual, after a ten hour shift of waiting tables at a TGIFridays in my hometown, Cincinnati. I do work, and humbly, but I know I'm a star and I searched and searched until I stumbled upon a guitar, the urge to be a singer/perfomer while for over twelve years wanting to have the most incredible physique ever created due to an incredible persistency of hard training and disciplined eating. O.K. so I'm crazy too, so damn what!!!! I came up with cool music as a vehicle to get my message of determination across to humanity. The message, "find your niche, believe in yourself, don't take no for an answer, and go full steam ahead without reservation until you're where you want to be. You can read my story at nakedcowboy.com , "naked" being a metaphor for how I live my life. I've nothing to hide. My life, like yours, whether you're willing to admit it or not, is an experiment.

Press Reviews My press reviews are a bit different from most. Mine look more like a police blotter of some sort. I play in my underwear at events I'm not invited to and I usually get arrested. That's what my press looks like. That's what got me famous. Oh, you say you haven't heard of me, well you have now. And please don't feel ashamed, I'd have gotten to you one way or another. I really do love everyone and do what I do because of that fact.

Additional Info My message to the world is to do whatever it is that inwardly rejoices you!!! If you follow your heart without making excuses, and never relent and give in to the pressures of conformity, your wil succeed and create a taste for your uniqueness and an immeasurable desire for your special attributes!!!
