Other stuff: Oliver is one of the ultimate good guys. Think Stanley Ipkiss in The Mask; he tries his best to stay upbeat and positive, in spite of everything going on around him. He has his moments, but he tries to get it all out in his music. He's not the brightest bulb on the porch, but he tries his best to be there for his friends and to make sure that everyone around him is going strong. He tends to get into relationships that ultimately result in his kindness advantage of, but has a son as a byproduct from the latest; Sebastian was born on July 31st, 2007.

Oliver's a big softie, especially in regards to animals, and his three cats (Enid, Martha, and Seymour) are all special needs pets that he's saved from animal shelters.

Born and raised in London, he still has a very strong cockney accent, though his slang has become fairly Americanized in the year+ that he's lived in the states; it's a point of pride of his, especially as it was what got him the spot as the voice for the Geico gecko.

He has nearly fifteen tattoos to date, including several large pieces, many of which are in a regular state of evolution or adaptation, depending on when he has the time to get them worked on.
