Pinkus (Butthole Surfers) & a long list of musicians of lesser media visibility, & is also a member of heavy prog/experimental ensemble Pink Mountain (not to be confused with The Pink Mountaintops {unfortunate happenstance}), Crock - a duo also featuring Spencer Seim (Hella), & Deep Fried Boogie Band.
