Some say Tommy Ferrari is a traveler from the future sent back in time to teach a group of young men the prophecies of tomorrow. Others say he’s a dude with long hair and lots of tats who frequents local watering holes. Even more people say: “Who cares? Chug! Chug! Chug! Whoooo!”

One thing that’s agreed upon is that Tommy Ferrari and the Future Motor Machines know how to rock a party, whether it be by glam rock, garage rock, punk-funk, or some greasy combination thereof. Iggy Pop called to invite David Bowie to a jam session, but Bryan Ferry picked up the phone and said he’s in the shower, and Bowie never got the message because The MC5 showed up and kicked Ferry’s ass. Yeah, something like that. If you’re about to go on a crime spree, make sure you have some Tommy Ferrari on your nano.

Kyle “Tommy Ferrari” Jones and Mike "Rory Borealis" Teeter took a break from beating up ne’er-do-wells and walking out on their tab at the IHOP to talk shop with us and share some new jams.

The Ferrari gang performs Friday, October 9, at the Jackpot Saloon.

    A little street cred, and lots of rambling. I'm excited to see if these 'rockers' can keep their heads in the game. Being from the future they know everything, right?
