New and improved bio! Now with more ego and less substance than before!
Just kidding of course. I'm the parodist who goes by Red Ant, whose real name is Jack Fletcher. I was born in and grew up in a small town in Virginia and still live there today.
I've been writing parodies for nearly three years, and have begun recording them recently. Before we get to those, I'd like to highlight what are considered some of my best works:
"I am the Very Master of all Errors Typographical":
An ode to my craptacular typing and grammar, it took the bronze Medal June 2005 Song Of The Month (SOTM).
Paul Simon and Art Garfunkel Fight!:
Paul and Art
really have it out in this parody, which took the bronze medal in the October 2005 SOTM.
