You do not have permission to edit this page, for the following reasons:

This IP address has been blocked from editing Wikipedia.
This does not affect your ability to read Wikipedia pages.
Most people who see this message have done nothing wrong. Some kinds of blocks restrict editing from specific service providers or telecom companies in response to recent abuse or vandalism, and can sometimes affect other users who are unrelated to that abuse. Review the information below for assistance if you do not believe that you have done anything wrong.

The IP address or range 34.205.0.0/16 has been blocked (disabled) by ‪ST47‬ for the following reason(s):

The IP address that you are currently using has been blocked because it is believed to be a web host provider. To prevent abuse, web hosts may be blocked from editing Wikipedia.
You will not be able to edit Wikipedia using a web host provider because it hides your IP address, much like a proxy or VPN.
We recommend that you attempt to use another connection to edit. For example, if you use a proxy or VPN to connect to the internet, turn it off when editing Wikipedia. If you edit using a mobile connection, try using a Wi-Fi connection, and vice versa. If you are using a corporate internet connection, switch to a different Wi-Fi network. If you have a Wikipedia account, please log in.
If you do not have any other way to edit Wikipedia, you will need to request an IP block exemption.

How to appeal if you are confident that your connection does not use a web host's IP address:
If you are confident that you are not using a web host, you may appeal this block by adding the following text on your talk page: ((unblock|reason=Caught by a web host block but this host or IP is not a web host. My IP address is _______. Place any further information here. ~~~~)). You must fill in the blank with your IP address for this block to be investigated. Your IP address can be determined here. Alternatively, if you wish to keep your IP address private you can use the unblock ticket request system. There are several reasons you might be editing using the IP address of a web host (such as if you are using VPN software or a business network); please use this method of appeal only if you think your IP address is in fact not a web host.

Administrators: The IP block exemption user right should only be applied to allow users to edit using web host in exceptional circumstances, and they should usually be directed to the functionaries team via email. If you intend to give the IPBE user right, a CheckUser needs to take a look at the account. This can be requested most easily at SPI Quick Checkuser Requests. Unblocking an IP or IP range with this template is highly discouraged without at least contacting the blocking administrator.

This block will expire on 05:44, 30 September 2026.

Even when blocked, you will usually still be able to edit your user talk page, as well as email administrators and other editors.

For information on how to proceed, please read the FAQ for blocked users and the guideline on block appeals. The guide to appealing blocks may also be helpful.

'''Jeffrey Crawford "Lazlow" Jones''' (born September 4, 1973) is an American writer, producer, director, voice actor, and radio personality. He is best known for his work with [[Rockstar Games]], with which he has worked on the ''[[Grand Theft Auto]]'', ''[[Max Payne]]'', and ''[[Red Dead Redemption]]'' series and for his radio shows ''Technofile'' and ''The Lazlow Show''.

==Career==
===Radio===
Lazlow's ''Technofile'' show ran from February 1995 to July 2007.

In 2005, Lazlow launched ''The Lazlow Show'' on Sundays on [[WINS-FM|WXRK-FM]] in New York City. After 23 shows, the program ceased on terrestrial radio in December 2005. From April 2006, the show re-launched on a non-regular basis on [[Opie Radio|The ViRus]], an uncensored channel on [[XM Satellite Radio]] as part of its Saturday Night Virus line-up. All episodes and extras are available for purchase on Lazlow's website. His co-hosts were Reed Tucker and "Big" Wayne. As of January 2, 2010, ''The Lazlow Show'' no longer airs; Lazlow and his staff were reportedly dissatisfied by management after Sirius and XM merged. The program has streamed live on the Internet on an irregular schedule since then. In 2014, "Big" Wayne died of a heart attack; Lazlow and Tucker hosted a special show in Wayne's memory.

===Rockstar Games===
==== ''Grand Theft Auto'' series ====
Lazlow has also been involved in writing, producing and doing voice-work as a fictionalized version of himself for the ''[[Grand Theft Auto]]'' series of video games.<ref name="Chaplin">((cite web|url=https://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=90041944|title=''Grand Theft Auto'', Live (Almost) from Liberty City|last=Chaplin|first=Heather|date=29 April 2008|work=[[NPR]]|access-date=15 February 2013|archive-date=11 February 2013|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20130211021538/http://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=90041944|url-status=live))</ref> He had worked at an advertising agency as a writer and producer, along with writer Reed Tucker (who is now his talk radio show's producer) on advertisements for a variety of consumer-related products. Since ''[[Grand Theft Auto III]]'' (2001), he co-wrote the radio stations in the games with [[Dan Houser]] of [[Rockstar Games]].

Lazlow produced, scripted and hosted the popular [[Grand Theft Auto III soundtrack#Chatterbox FM|Chatterbox FM]] radio station in ''Grand Theft Auto III''. 

Lazlow took a larger role in ''[[Grand Theft Auto: Vice City]]'' (2002). Rockstar Games hired his production company to co-write and produce all the radio stations in ''[[Vice City (Grand Theft Auto fictional city)|Vice City]]'' and the pedestrian dialogue. In this game, which takes place in 1986, he is the host of the Vice City radio station [[Grand Theft Auto: Vice City soundtrack#V-Rock|V-Rock]]. In ''[[Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas]]'' (2004), Lazlow co-wrote and produced the in-game media and hosted ''Entertaining America'' on [[Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas soundtrack|WCTR]] after the original host Billy Dexter was killed by fictional character Jack Howitzer on air.

Lazlow "returned" as the host of [[Grand Theft Auto: Liberty City Stories soundtrack#Chatterbox|Chatterbox radio show]] in ''[[Grand Theft Auto: Liberty City Stories]]'' (2005), although in a minor role in the game's chronology (which takes place in 1998) that has Chatterbox as a show on a channel, not an entire channel of its own. During his show on the Public Access station, he hints that he will be getting his own channel during a call that frustrates him, when he says that "My buddy Donald [Love] and I have big plans for this station. C-box 24/7!"

Lazlow "returned" in ''[[Grand Theft Auto: Vice City Stories]]'' (2006), which is set in 1984, as an intern at V-Rock working for his real-life friend, [[Couzin Ed]]. In their real-life radio careers, Lazlow was the sidekick of Couzin Ed, whom he would almost always tease on the radio.

Lazlow is the host of radio station [[Grand Theft Auto IV#Soundtrack|Integrity 2.0]] in ''[[Grand Theft Auto IV]]'' (2008) and ''[[Grand Theft Auto: Episodes from Liberty City]]'' (2009). Integrity's sole program consists of his on-site reporting from around Liberty City. The content of this show is more profane than previous installments, with the character's justification being that he's "fed up with the system." He provides the ZiT! service, where listeners can request the artist and title of the song currently playing on the radio. He is also credited among others for creating the conversations of pedestrians in Liberty City. He has an in-game criminal record, as can be seen in the Liberty City Police Department database.

On 15 September 2013, Lazlow presented a special radio show alongside [[Pete Donaldson]] on [[Absolute Radio]] in the [[United Kingdom]] to celebrate the launch of ''[[Grand Theft Auto V]]''. He confirmed that he had been working on the game for the last five years. He appears in the game as a co-host of the talk radio show called [[Grand Theft Auto V soundtrack|Chattersphere]] and as the host of the TV talent competition ''Fame or Shame''. He makes his first on-screen appearance in the series in the mission "Fame or Shame" in which he is chased and threatened by protagonists [[Michael De Santa]] and [[Trevor Philips]]. He also appears in person in other missions, including one in which Michael physically assaults him. In 2018, he makes a brief appearance in some missions of the After Hours update in ''[[Grand_Theft_Auto_Online#2018|Grand Theft Auto Online]]''. Afterwards, he is seen having fun or despair in the player's nightclub (which was included with the update) depending on the club's popularity.

He has arranged voice cameos in the ''Grand Theft Auto'' series for several key figures from the magazine ''[[2600: The Hacker Quarterly]]'', including [[Eric Corley|Emmanuel Goldstein]], [[Bernie S]]. and [[Kevin Mitnick]].

==== Other series ====
Lazlow has collaborated with [[Rockstar Games]] on ''[[Red Dead Redemption]]'' and ''[[Max Payne 3]]'', co-writing and directing pedestrian dialogue and in-game media. He was also a writer and audio director on ''[[Red Dead Redemption 2]]''.<ref>((cite web |url=https://www.eurogamer.net/articles/2018-10-16-rockstar-attepts-to-defuse-100-hour-work-week-controversy-amidst-storm-of-criticism |title=Rockstar attempts to defuse 100-hour work week controversy amid storm of criticism |first=Tom |last=Phillips |date=October 15, 2018 |website=[[Eurogamer]] |access-date=2018-10-17 |archive-date=2018-10-16 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20181016142850/https://www.eurogamer.net/articles/2018-10-16-rockstar-attepts-to-defuse-100-hour-work-week-controversy-amidst-storm-of-criticism |url-status=live ))</ref>

==== Post-Rockstar ====
In April 2020, Lazlow left [[Rockstar Games]] after spending nearly 20 years at the company due to personal reasons. He has since operated Radio Lazlow, an independent production company working on projects for studios like [[The Walt Disney Company|Disney]] and [[Netflix]].<ref>((Cite web|last=Reisinger|first=Don|date=August 14, 2020|title=Rockstar Games director and writer departs after nearly 20 years|url=https://www.digitaltrends.com/gaming/lazlow-jones-leaves-rockstar-games/|url-status=live|website=[[Digital Trends]]|access-date=June 10, 2021|archive-date=April 12, 2021|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20210412171014/https://www.digitaltrends.com/gaming/lazlow-jones-leaves-rockstar-games/))</ref>
