Biography
It was a Red Moon back in 1975, an alien spaceship crash-landed in a field outside of Johannesburg. A small blob of goo was ejected from the foreign inter-stellar vehicle and splashed against the belly-button of a beautiful young South African woman. She didn't shower that night as she was considering becoming a hippy.
A few months later GARVIES was flushed into the ocean where he lived on fish & seaweed until his teenage years. One very bright sunny morning he was seen by an elderly man with a cane walking his dog on the beach, emerging from the rocky shore-break on The Bluff with nothing but a shitty warped Spanish guitar with some goo on it.
He was later reported seen skateboarding the mountainous downhills of the N2 freeway spanning South Africa with the warped Spanish guitar in one arm & surboard in the other; some then saw him tearing up the long walls of Supertubes in J-Bay. There were rumors he was seen playing bass in a hip-hop band in Cape Town. There are photos of him wide-eyed in the front row at a Red Hot Chili Peppers concert in England in the late 1990's. He was then seen playing bass in a touring rock-band in Toronto, Canada in 2009 & just the other day someone saw him getting spat out of an early-winter barrel at Chestermanns Beach on Vancouver Island..
Who knows where he'll pop & slap next.
