| ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Craig has this "thing" for vending machines. He likes to go bowling and loves to cook (mmm!). He has four nationalities: Spanish, English, French, and German. His favorite subject is history. His favorite food is dessert (lock up every single sweet you have in the house!). Craig a major fan of the Deftones, Cheap Trick, Metallica, KISS, AC/DC, and Soundgarden. He used to collect watches. At one point in time, Craig thought about joining the Coast Guard (thanks, Cassie!). With Everclear drummer Greg Eklund, Craig wrote the beginning tune to "So Much for the Afterglow." He wrote the music for Everclear's b-side (and original track for World of Noise) "Drunk Again." He received the nickname "The Mallet" after attemping to open a can of tuna and whacking Greg Eklund in the forehead with a mallet (Greg did bleed a lot)! Craig once bashed his bass guitar and a piece hit a girl in the forehead! He recorded "Last Man Standing" with Flipp, a former Everclear opening act and Popularity Record's (Everclear's Art Alexakis's record label) band. He is a sex symbol in Europe (thanks to the next tidbit). Many people confuse Craig for Keanu Reeves, especially during the SMFTA era (another Virgo bassist! What a coincidink!). |
