EAK, Born 1962. Coney Island's Eak earned his namenot because his burly physique and heavily tattooed flesh scared people, but rather as an acronym for "Eddie, Are you Kidding?" Friends used the Frank Zappa phrase as a reaction to his various outreages antics. But before being christened Eak, the tattooed wonder, pain-proof man, bouncer, and poet was simply Eduardo Arrocha from Mexico City. Source: Marc Hartzman, American Sideshow, Penguin 2006. ►more
