David Johanson

The door to the next room opens and outsteps Spike's neighbor du jour, David Johanson.Once his door is locked he turns and comes face to face with my brother."What the hell?"

"We're staying here.We've been here all week, I mean, my boss has.Really."James is starting to wonder if he can take the grandfather of punk in a fight.

"That's fine kid."and he's gone, off to play some Hot, Hot, Hot and Personality Crisis for some old punks and eager to be hip yuppies at whatever club has booked this night of his never ending tour.

James doesn't figure on seeing him again, but of course he does, at about six am the next morning.The door to Spike's room opens and the sunlight floods in. "God Damn, you people are slobs."

'What the hell is David Johanson, the singer for the New York Dolls doing in my hotel room at six o'clock in the morning?' James is up, Spike is up, and Johanson is continuing his tirade.

The bane of his existence is former band mate David Johanson, the Dolls former lead singer who went on to succeed as both an actor and singer under his alter ego Buster Poindexter.

I didn't even know that David Johanson was the lead singer for Heaven's sake.

Although Kane has few reservations, as you watch you will root for all the boys as they take this journey together and God grants his servant the want of his heart and soul by first allowing the band to not only play together and play together well, but by repairing the strained relationships, especially between David Johanson (lead singer) and Kane.

In their defence, this is hardly the kind of environment they are used to playing in: lead singer, David Johanson, complains about the smell of cow manure, kindly adding, "We've played places that smell worse."

Lawyer Dave (aka The Broke-Offs) accompanies on a homemade drum-kit -operable solely by his feet - producing a backbeat like a battle with a mal-aligned cutlery drawer, leaving his nimble fingers free to add a validating richness and depth on lead guitars.

Dave: It kept beeping.

Dave was shivering and wet.

Later, they told me that Dave was wet from jumping in the lake behind our house.He was naked.It was December.It was well below freezing.He claims that it wasn't that cold, the only thing that shocked him was the fact that the water was brackish (that means salty for those of you who don't live on the coast).Eye witnesses claim that he flailed around in the lake, screaming "Oh God!!!

The New York Dolls' David Johanson was a cop in town.
