About Me


.....CULPEPER CONCERTS now gone...dead. I had to get a real job after 2 years of trying to make it within the local music scene. Pay checks rule!

I write about our new modern day pirates(ARGGH!) and the world's most gorgeous Super and Mega Yachts
at: www.ports-directory.com !
We are now in sunny Florida. :-)

ALL IS NOT LOST!
Music in Orange this fall!

My Interests

I'd like to meet:


Statement of the Month:
Thanks to all who worked so hard to help revive the Culpeper area music scene.
 I appreciate every single person who came out to support our shows and support the bands who've worked so hard to provide some very high-quality rock music.
I have so many great memories - and surprisingly - no bad memories or sour feelings for anyone or anything that transpired.
I just hit the age of 53,which means I have less memory than a Mac II on OS 3, but will always remember all of you and consider the Culpeper Rock Academy days to be among the best times in my life.
Be proud of yourselves and please...if you can....pick up my gauntlet and run with it. The groundwork is there; we just need YOU to keep it all alive!
Please do this for the sake of the kids in Culpeper and surrounding areas. Do it for the bands - and those bands who will come after you in years to come.
But most of all, DO IT FOR THE MUSIC.
Rock on.
