I need info on Alex Rigopulos.

I once heard if you say his name 5 times while looking at a mirror you can see into the future.

Yeah 2nd post, but I really do need some information on "The" Alexander Peter "Alex" Rigopulos. My assignment is lacking the information about his earlier life, which is something any report needs really. I've tried looking for information about his life before M.I.T. but haven't found anything. So I've come here looking for people who might know.

I'm doing my report on Mr. Rigopulos since he's influenced the way I play for a while. Ever since grabbing the Mic for the first Rock Band I've actually gotten complements on my singing instead of just laughs and cries to: "Shut the F*** up!". I was quite happy the day I Gold Starred Master Exploder and more so when I Gold Starred Rob-The-Prez-O-Dent. I believe that he's really changed the landscape of how we play games and besides the fact that he's been in Time's 100, I think that you've made it when guys in college make you the topic of their term papers.

So anything else that you can give me seriously (along with the ridiculous of course, I'd ask nothing more of the internet) would be massively appreiciated.

(Wolfmother rocks, btw)

This is about the best I can find. There's really not that much info on him.

[RockBandRocker]

Alex Rigopulos was created by the Dark Lord Sauron out of DNA taken from Chuck Norris, Rob Halford and bacon!!

[Onslaught_fei]

He was created by a terrorist organization with the DNA of Julius Caesar, Napoleon Bonaparte, Attila the Hun, Philip II of Macedon and his son Alexander the Great, Ivan the Terrible, Vlad the Impaler, Hannibal, Genghis Khan, and Grigori Rasputin.

Wow, all of these terrible posts are making my head spin. On behalf of the TC, thanks to anyone who actually contributed something to the thread.

That's a manatee.

Alex Rigopulos is the basis for the character of Dr. Frank-N-Furter in "The Rocky Horror Picture Show".

When reached for comment, Tim Curry (who played the character) said:

"I don't know how I was able to distill all of Alex's sexiness and project it in front of the camera. I wanted to be true to the source material, but the guy is just so damn HOT"

Alex once killed a bear with a loose leaf note book while walking to school in the snow with no shoes on...both ways!
