"Who the fuck is SANDRO OLIVA?!?"
Born from a half-sicilian family which moved constantly.
Started to write an encyclopaedia at the age of nine. Soon gave up.
Never made it in my volley-ball team.
Got out of school and played guitar in some obscure rock combos.

Started to write my own.
Started to let my hair grow too.
Studied composition for one year.
Expelled from the music school because of my hair.
Formed my own band.
Recorded an album. Never came out.
Toured Italy and South America with that freaky avant-garde combo.
Had more
trouble with record companies.
Got married to a
lovely girl. Almost ruined our own lives.
Released an album and sold all my equipement to record the next one.
Built my own "Cucurbitacea Sapiens Recording Studios".
Recorded a new album. Never came out.
Finally joined forces with Jim, Don, Bunk and Ener.
Played a lot of Mothers' music and wah wah solos,
becoming vastly unpopular (though notorious).
Almost got sued by the famous composer's wife.
Filed for divorce.
Collected too many guitars,
quite a lot of flea market junk,
and a wonderful son.
Moved my studio and myself to this amazing old village.
Quit the GM band.
...finally met a gorgeous Woman and her Cat...
Still Alive!
