About Me

I am from Dallas originally and spent the last 30 years in radio as an on air personality and wanna be musician, playing when I had the time, but never really applying myself due to the demands of my career. I did manage to play some while in Colorado with a couple of Jazz Bands and the band Wildcard. Recently a jaw condition has kept me off the air, so I have had plenty of time to reflect on what is important in life. One thing that has always been missing is playing music. So this web site is a way to focus on what I really want to do and hopefully share music and friendship with others. I hope to hear from you!

Day The Earth Stood Still
