What made Milwuakee famous made a loser out of me.

About Me

Pennsylvania native, been in SC since July 1999. I spend my time playing guitar in a rockabilly/greaser punk band, The Defilers, messing with my '65 Impala and '54 Belair, and going out, hearing music, and shooting pool. It may or may not have been me that put the bomp in the bomp-she-bomp-she-bomp, but I had NOTHING to do with the ramalamadingdong. I swear. Oh, Yeah. You're only 2 degrees from Kevin Bacon if you're friends with me. He came to one of our shows in Columbia, SC. So I'm one degree from the man.

My Interests

Music- Rockabilly/greaser punk, old cars, I guess vintage stuff in general, baseball (especially my Phitin' Phils), travel, and redheads.
