Singing out loud at 2am with far too much tequila sometimes!
Interstate Love Song by Stone Temple Pilots, a studio recording for our industry demo with Dave “Shoob” Shafer on guitar, Dave “Roofer” Murgia playing drums, and me on bass, lead vocals, and backing vocals. Tim sings a high third in the distance sometimes.
Alive by Pearl Jam, performed Live opening New Year’s Eve 08/09 for The Frank Hannon Band. That’s Tim singing lead and me backing. Ben Ramos on lead guitar, Steve Brainard on rhythm guitar, Roofer Dave on drums, and me on bass, plus adding depth with bass pedals.
Then followed by the two covers I produce with my friend Jay to audition for the second lead singer in Slight Of Hand, Beautiful by Ten Years - a recording I actually made for a dear friend - and Believe by Disturbed.
Tell me what you think!!!
And Rayne Tells Me What She Thinks, And Feels...
Until My Dying Day...
Current mood:Thinking of my love...Caso...
What is this that has touched my heart so still The whispering willows call my name against my will The sunset becomes something new to me I can't catch my breath...yet your voice still calls to me...am I finally free
In a whirlwind....I get lost in the moments of your touch What is this ...why does this happen... when I protected my heart so much Your hand caresses my soul..nothing that I ever expected at all I am so hard to handle...yet you seem to catch me when I fall
In all of natures beauty...in all that you show to me... of this world in which we live There is no greater love than this....you lean to kiss me again "Baby.....look at the stars"...I gaze up at the midnights sky Looking up to the heavens...with a tear drop in my eye
I only wish to have this feeling...never wanting it to end I look at you...your hair.... blowing in the wind My heart stands still....the moonlight glow upon your face Shows the inner depths of your soul....a beauty with so much grace
As I sit here...waiting for your return..waiting for your touch I realized that my heart is finally found someone I can love so much It didn't happen over night...didnt happen in an instant But it grew from a friendship....our love that runs so deep without resistance
Until my dying day...when my heart no longer beats to the music of my soul You hold me so tenderly in your arms...for once I don't feel so alone Only this moment..I cherish it with all that I have... Walking through all of God's beautiful creations...holding your hand...

Rayne, the Love of My Life - I am Your's Completely, My Heart and Spirit, You move me so
I Cherish, Adore, Love You With All That I Am, Until My Final Breath
I am a life-long and dedicated musician - bassist, singer, keyboardist. I am very passionate about music and playing. I play a very aggressive bass style which I call “Lead Bass” - Chock full of chords, 16ths and 32nds I embrace my fret rattle! It's a wonder I don't break more strings!
Thanks Franky! For chewing the strings with me!
Learned everything bass and keyboard by ear, despite many years of choir and orchestra.

Oh, keep your picks to yourselves will you? ...What good a bassist if they don't have blistered fingertips???

I have been blessed with an interesting, creative and dynamic life. Adventurous. Risky. Joyful. Musical. I’ve rock climbed in Yosemite since the Golden Age (Trad)

Worked the flight line – Jumped out of planes, fallen WAY faster than a skydiver. Been there for a few people when it really DID make all the difference. I’ve spent time with people you may know the name of, but cherish more things like being on a cold knife-edge ridge looking across the rim of the world.
Living in Big Sur with all the cool people and Hippie Chicks. Those quiet, simple times. The rockingly loud boisterous times with others, the one’s we care most about.

Where would I rather be? Climbing or Playing music for friends and fans. Keeping my hands busy with music - ah, constant music - computers, teaching or building. Helping out where I can. Digging for minerals and gems in the mines of California deserts and mountains.


Looking for that next perfect Elf Grotto by the sea or in the forest with ferns and redwoods and bearberry shrubs, a stream running through it.....
Perhaps a cliff edge only a climber could approach, an overlooking view where others not so inclined would fall to their death.
Maybe even sight of crashing ocean waves,
or far-off mountains snow- capped, sharp against Her blue-grey skies.

Or Living that California Dream! Music turned up so loud as you head down that road - that perfect smooth California Highway, heading south along Highway One as the road unwinds toward you, with the Pacific and a girl and the setting sun towards the right.


Motoring east towards a desert sunrise an hour off, the Moon a fragile crescent over the horizon. The Netted Stars, Nemerreth, frosted blue, and Orion, with his shining belt climbing higher in the sky. Brilliant diamonds, sapphires and rubies in a perfect indigo depth, as that road unfolds before you.

Seeing the lonely light far off in the distance, cutting the night, as in quiet darkness dry lands or trees pass by, headlights cursing the blackness, as that electric spark silently eases past you flashing in and out, the last house for ever again.


I am told that I often have a way with things – Music, Words, Craft, Insight. Been called spooky sometimes, that's because I live in the Light and the Dark at once. Though things have really changed that being honest, direct, caring, forthright from the beginning is thought to be strange and unlikey. Such is our fearful society.


One day a gentle Rayne fell into my open, upturned hands… Oh My! I Love You Entirely!!!

Born of the deep Desert Southwest, raised with Surburbia, grew up in the Sierra Mountains, Lived by the Sea, all under that same wonderful sky - I hold all equally in my heart.
