BTW chile pepper magazine has an article about the Red Rocker and one of his songs
Red Voodoo  goes like this:
Operator help me please; room service got me on my knees.
                                    They got the same ole ham and rye...
                                    And give me fillet gumbo crawfish pie.

Chile Pepper magazine had a piece on IA a few months back and apparently he's a major chilehead.  He did, however, mix up the botanical designation calling a habanero Capsicum frutescens.  Oh well, at least he's spreadin' the word.
