I agree with you there.  But Uncle Mike is perhaps the only guy I know who
shows up at C-Stone who has that weird rock-god charisma.  It's the same
weird vibe that Jack Black gives off when he's live as half of the D.
However, Mike Roe has filed the swagger razor-sharp, while Jack is just
letting it kinda flop around him.  At the same time, Mike's terribly
personable, especially when he's Lost Dogging.
