Peter Dinklage had a punk band and you better believe there are pictures

Before he rocked the seven kingdoms with truth bombs and drunken wit, Tyrion Lannister A.K.A. Peter Dinklage rocked the stage with his punk band. In the early '90s, Dinklage was part of Whizzy, a punk/rap/funk outfit based in New York. Dinklage was in his 20s at the time and had recently moved to New York after college.

An article from the Columbia Spectator archives describes a song called "Omnivore Lord" with the following lyrics:

I'm an omnivore yet I do much more I rock a party with my mike get people out on the floor but when the show is over and my rhymes are through I head to the kitchen 'cause I need some food
