Charles Herold lives in Manhattan and writes about video games for http://nintendo.about.com. He used to perform around New York, either as himself or with the band Death & Taxes ("inevitably entertaining"), but now only does so every few years. Charles spends most of his free time Lindy Hopping.
Death & Taxes originally started as a duo with Charles and Cheryl Guttman, and later became a Sacramento band featuring Rick Da Prato on drums, Lynn Besne on Saxophone and Flute, and Teresa Fagin on Bass. There was also New York version of the band with Little Oscar on drums.
