About Me

..
I play guitar and write music. Cantonese Boy is my music project. The name is from a Japan song of the same name. I am not Cantonese. I raise the bar for a living. October 12 marked six years with Nicole. I prefer 6550 power tubes over KT88s in my Sunn 0))) Model T. I am a vegetarian and have been for almost 8 years. Plan to keep it that way. When I am older, I want to move to Montana and raise dental floss (FZ fans know).

I am currently playing guitar in Rusholme Ruffians (a smiths/morrissey tribute band) and other projects TBD.

Some of the bands I been in include the following:
Rubber Banned
SSL/Kung Fusion/Shades of Gray/Cantonese Boy
Jack City Oldschool Carpool
Sphinx
The Normalsons
Hank El Diablo
and other contributions along the way.
