Mike Watt (born 20.12.1957) is very busy man. Since 1979 he played with numerous bands. Most important were: The Minutemen, Dos, fIREHOSE, Sonic Youth (as Ciccione Youth) J Mascis and Iggy and The Stooges.
In 1994 he started recording first solo album. About half hundred people played on that record but music is surprisingly good.
Album "Ball-Hog or Tugboat?" was eventually released in 1995. His backing band for promotional tour was quite impresive: Eddie Vedder, Dave Grohl and Pat Smear. Here you have gig from that tour.
