Fall played bandolin and guitar for skateboarder Mark Gonzales in what they called the Mark Gonzales 5 band on a song which was featured in a Real skateboard video (1997).
In February 2000, in a pre-Jackass stunt, Fall and Chris Pontius joined forces for Big Brother skateboard magazine and donned pink and blue pj's and used skateboard trucks as slides for dobros and lap steel guitars. The goal was a humorous durability test to see if the trucks would hold up during the mayhem.

All guitars, bass, keyboard, were played by Hetson. They released a limited, scarce to find vinyl pressing of only 150. In 2021, on Halloween night, their band Creatures In Habit released Whips? Just Hits for digital downloading.[1]
