GUY HOFFMAN is a professional putz. Check it out: www.radioromeo.com/guyhoffman/.

A member of the VIOLENT FEMMES from 1993-2001, Guy first found acclaim with another well known Milwaukee band, the BoDEANS (perhaps best known for their theme song of the TV show "Party of Five"). He can be heard on the BoDeans' debut album "Love & Hope & Sex & Dreams"(Slash/Warner 1986). He can be seen in BoDean videos for the songs "Fadeaway" and "She's A Runaway". Guy reunited with BoDeans singer/songwriter Sammy Llanas to form the band ABSINTHE. They released an album entitled "A Good Day To Die" in 1998. He is also a founding member of the OIL TASTERS, and is currently of RADIO ROMEO based in Los Angeles, California. Simply log on to: www.radioromeo.com/guyhoffman/.

For nine years, Guy played drums and sang with Violent Femmes on their world-wide tours and live/studio recording sessions. Two versions of "Blister In The Sun", the Femmes signature song, were recorded with Guy for the "Grosse Pointe Blank Soundtrack" CD (London 1997). On the Femmes' 2005 CD, "Permanent Record - The Very Best of Violent Femmes", he performs on several tracks which include "Breakin' Up", "I Danced", "Country Death Song (Live)", "Freak Magnet", and "Good Feeling (Live)". Guy can be seen in motion picture and television productions such as "Woodstock '94", "Sabrina the Teenage Witch", and "VH-1 Hard Rock Live". He has performed on numerous music videos and late night talk shows in the US, UK, Canada, Europe and Australia.

On a recent soundtrack, Guy played drums and composed music for the 2004 film "FIELD DAY". Get all the facts, photos and latest news straight from the source! Log on to www.radioromeo.com.

In 2009 he temporarily changed his name to Thornhill Billy Pilgrim Upwicket and joined forces with ex- Milwaukean Marty Ross and the duo Yanni And Marie (in a Word) to form the non profit Surf Blues band "PityDamnShame." Plans call for the band to release some original music and actually play in public sometime before 2018. People close to the band believe that the their first release will most likely be called My Favorite Marty. This should assure the band of their non profit status. Earlier reports that Guy was playing with sticks made from compressed mulch were largely untrue. Sticks made from hardened animal waste were deemed unsafe as well, especially in small concert settings. To date it appears that Mr. Hoffman has found after years of continued, exhaustive research that wood drumsticks, especially oak, from oak trees, are the most desirable. And wheat. Guys' hero continues to be the metronome. In 2010 Hoffman reportedly fled to the hills of Northern Los Angeles County.Future updates of Hoffmans whereabouts will be carried out by C.B. Radio and controled smoke signals.This particular message may not last very long on this site due to Hoffmans undisclosed disclosure agreement that had not been recently removed nearly completely.
