Alex studied ambidextrous blame-making at the esteemed "Institut de non mon défaut" in Marseilles, Idaho, under the tutelage of Mssrs. Blanchard and Fromage, who aside from denying any knowledge of Alex, were unavailable for comment. It was here he discovered the importance of rhythm, light guitar strings, and drummers.
Alex formed Abalone Penguin during a Fondue hallucination involving members of the Russian Mafia and hints that there are 'big things ahead' of the band, but will not divulge any details to date.
