Mr. Cricket's Real Name:
Dustin Michael Hagan
Background:
I used to stick my tongue out at my younger brother and try and
talk at the same time. This resulted in a goofy voice and a
ridiculous facial expression that would not only make my brother
laugh, but would also keep him from tattling on me whenever we got
into a fight. Soon a fictitious character started to take
shape, and eventually my brother started calling him Mr. Cricket.
Why Mr. Cricket?
Good question, Tex! My younger brother and I are both big fans of
Daffy Duck, and every time Daffy Duck is in front of an audience and tells
a joke... no one laughs. Only the sound of crickets can be heard. There
were several times when I, or Mr. Cricket I should say, would talk in that
goofy voice, make a face, and then my brother would try and keep from
laughing. Then he'd make the sound of crickets as if to emulate a scene
from a Daffy Duck cartoon.
Who is Twibith?
That's Mr. Cricket's younger brother. His real name is Travis, but since
Mr. Cricket has trouble speaking, and spends most of his time in a state
of utter disarray, he calls his brother Twibith. The Definitions

keeps blathering about.

What does Mr. Cricket
sound like?
Mr. Cricket ruins everything from
rap to folk music with his fractured views on modern life. He loves to

beats.
