I'm a veteran musician who has traveled extensively amongst the U.S., Canada, and Europe. I settled down from travel in 1997, when I met my loving wife.
I have become a serious family man, still perform, but not as often.
My family is always first! My wife, and kids mean the world to me! Drumming (obviously), weightlifting, yard work, my Bulldogs, and my Pug, Yoda!A very cool drum forumLove the Sushi,Occasional drink,
I am strictly on Myspace to network with musicians, and generally cool people. I am very happily married, and do not seek any sexual interaction! If I had the opportunity, I'd like to meet Steve Vai, and Alex Van Halen.I'd like to hang out with Thomas Lang, and try to absorb some of his drumming knowledge.A couple of Drummers that I've always admired, I was fortunate to meet were,Tommy Aldridge (B.O.A., Pat Travers, Ozzy, Whitesnake, ect.)Randy Castillo (Ozzy, Motley Crue)
..
This was entitled "The great upside down trick" I used to hang from the ceiling, and solo over a basic drum machine pattern. Back in the 80's/early 90's it was all about the show.
Food network, Cops, Americas most wanted, Wrestling (sometimes), and the Travel channel. Family Guy!!!!!
Generally I read Modern Drummer, and Muscle, and fitness magazines. I generally don't have time to sit, and read.
