Extremo!!! Dang nut.
The first time i saw him he was singing in his car while holding puppets out the window. I think it was a Sesame Street song.

The first time I ever saw this guy he came up to my daughter and I and, “Want some candy little girl?” followed by evil laughter. It was one of the scarist moments in my life. Every time I see him I run the other way. Like the other guy mentioned in his comment, I have seen Extremo on more than one time driving around in his car and having his monkey puppet sing along to whatever song he has playing in his car. I have even seen him doing this going down the freeway at 65 mph. I keep waiting to see him on the side of the road after hitting another car and blaming the accident on his monkey.

Extremo made my boyfriend’s and my first trip to Portland for the Saturday Market one of the more memorable excursions we’ve had of late. The world needs more people who do what they do and don’t give a damn about how it looks. When you see Extremo’s monkey and skeleton head jamming to Black Sabbath, followed immediately by the Carpenters, you will understand. And the car? Simply amazing. Rock on, Extremo.

If you think that’s bad, you should have him over for Christmas or some other family function…just kidding! Scot (& Extremo) are harmless and I let my children go with “Uncle Scot” whenever they can. He shows them how to “be free from what others think about you” and he is always a hoot! I’ve known him for over 30 years…come to think of it…he does have an evil alter-ego “OMERTEX”…
