Ho's still around. He recently played a night called Alcatraz in Liverpool. I didn't go cos I was out of town, but I heard his set was amazing. I think he's still in LA. Last bit of tunes I got through of his was an original CD set from 2 WMCs ago. Def a good CD. It's been an afterparty favourite at my house quite a bit. I'm such a fan, I've even got a Ho T-shirt. lol.
