name: Hi! My name is Marco

The truth is Marco comes from a normal family and found that by doing incredibly
weird things he would feel better. He got a job working grave yard because everyone

high school drop out who is just making money until his band My Opossum and That
Strange Taste gets off the ground or members with talent. Which ever comes first.
