About

Born in Roachville, NY, on the same day as the Truman Doctrine, jak threw up on a farm. As the years passed, jak developed a youthful interest in the setting of fires. Although, he swears to this day the subway terminal job was the work of his next door neighbor, Barry "The Bear". Jak, or as he was known at the time, "Scotty Watty", was sent out to take up the piano after class in first grade. After getting beaten up by bullies on the way home from piano lessons one too many times he decided to take up the trumpet which at least afforded the ability to defend himself with a potential weapon of brass destruction. Later, in junior high, the horn case provided a great seat while waiting for the Dewey Avenue bus.
