About Me

My life is all about great music, regardless of who's writing or playing or what it may be called, and I have always lived in the moment, so in turn believe those are the only notes of any importance. "Learn from the past, but play now" As for the future, Moussey Alexander said it best, "I wish that when I die, the Lord will leave my ears open so I can listen to music forever."
