Music Is My Life!

About Me


I edited my profile with Thomas’ Myspace Editor V3.6 !
I am a 35 year old Music DVD Producer & Director living In LA. I have produced DVD's for a ton of major acts including Godsmack, Nickelback, Matchbox Twenty, Rush, Duran Duran, Dave Matthews Band, Destiny's Child, The Black Eyed Peas, Kiss, Gloria Estefan', Marilyn Manson, and tons of others.I am very business minded and work all the time. I am a big believer in artists and having them control their own careers. I own several companies including a music DVD Company called "Coming Home Studios", a record label distributed through Universal called "Cement Shoes Records" and a recording studio in Hollywood, CA with Sully from Godsmack called "Spiral Recording". I also manage several bands such as The Pink Spiders, The Dreaming, Nina, Krystal Buckley, Ryan Star and the legendary producer Andy Johns. In addition I am an investor in a restaurant chain called "Citizen Smith". We are going to take over the world soon.I enjoy hanging out with people who are as ambitous as me and like the music business, but most of all hanging with people who are not too serious! Having fun is the key around me. If you don't laugh everyday- stay the hell away from me!!I am married to a beautiful girl named Madelyn and have a beautiiful daughter, Isabella.One more thing- screw the Man! The system sucks! Save Rock & Roll!!
