AL once shot a man in Reno just to watch him die. But the man got better. An early disappointment, then, but one which casts no shadow over Al's amenable disposition. Everyone is equal in his eyes; or, as Al cheerily puts it, "You're all c***s, goodbye".

The bass guitar is the instrument of choice for sociopaths, and as such Al takes to it like a duck to l'orange. Being left-handed, Al holds the bass with the strings towards his body. Nobody can see what he is playing. Or playing with.
