Cazzy is known for selling Jimi Hendrix’s guitar strap<br /> from the 1969 Woodstock Festival<br /> at Sotheby’s Rock and Roll memorabilia auction house in New York city.<br /> Cazzy had one of his songs included in the Horror film,<br /> “The Night Owl”, which is part of an indie Horror DVD 4-pack called,<br /> “Wicked Intentions” available at Sam Goody,Renco,Circuit City,<br /> Best Buy, and Amazon.com. </p> <p>Cazzy went to Orlando, Florida briefly to play music and network.<br /> Although he loved the many talented musicians he met in Florida,<br /> one day he actually came home to find his girlfriend dead on the toilet bowl<br /> from a heroin overdose…eyes still wide open.<br /> (She started with pills dear…)</p> <p>(Hence, the reason why some people say Cazzy is insane.)<br /> He is not insane. <br /> Just wary of some humans now.<br /> Some people have emailed Cazzy asking whether or not<br /> that is his late girlfriends’ voice one hears on the track,<br /> “Zoomin’ with a Dead Girl”...the answer is yes.<br /> Now when Cazzy first wrote the song,<br /> “Go Away”,<br /> he played it for his late girlfriend on acoustic,<br /> since he had written it for her…<br /> these were the words she would tell him everyday…<br /> she was in constant pain.<br /> (She was run over by a guy in a pick-up truck<br /> as she was crossing the street going to a Christmas Play).<br /> Upon hearing the song on acoustic guitar,<br /> she broke down in tears.<br /> She never lived to hear the finished studio version.</p> <p>After that traumatic morning in Orlando,<br /> Cazzy headed back to New York to try and clear his head.<br /> He really hasn’t played too much music,<br /> Just occasionally playing out at open mic’s and at the occasional rave.<br /> However, if allowed to….<br /> He does play a mean guitar!<br /> Most of the time though, Cazzy-The Alien Blues Dude is a recluse…<br /> only coming out of the spaceship occasionally<br /> when called on to play some guitar <br /> by some DJ or<br /> the occasional club<br /> but mostly jams with friend,<br /> Psy-Trance/Techno DJ,<br /> DJ CKat. (Cheshire Kat)<br /> Lately though, Cazzy had recently moved…<br /> To Dallas, Texas…and then lately…to Atlanta,Georgia.<br /> Then to Orlando,Florida again at present.<br /> <a href="http://www.myspace.com/cazzylove">http://www.myspace.com/cazzylove</a><br /> ********************<br /> Peace</p> <p>Cazzy<br /> The Alien Bluez Dude </p> </div>  <div class="comment_details"> <p>Cazzy posted on January 06, 2010</p> </div> </div>  <div class="comment"> <div class="comment_text"> <p>The band is Campbell.
