Hey.....
UPDATED: April, 2009
Hey, so I finally got around to writing up some of my answers to the major Andrew WK questions. After going through just about every single Andrew WK related bit of information I could find, and talking to dozens and dozens of people, including quite a few people who have spent time with Andrew personally, I present you with:
About 3 years ago, in early 2006, my friend and I decided to start compiling a list of all the best Andrew WK related material we could find online. My friend is a self-described "avant-garde music obsessive", and he's been primarily interested in the earlier history of Andrew WK, so a lot of these links are focused on the long and complicated Steev Mike legend. I became more interested in getting to the truth about Andrew's origins. This is our list of all the best AWK links and our hope is that this brings people closer to what the music is really about. People who are genuinely interested in finding out more about Andrew WK and his history should also find these links helpful. Please keep in mind that the links are in no particular order and we're constantly updating.
Thanks for checking this out.
