About Me

Music ain't nothing but a photograph. It's a view of the event and the mirror from which the event can view itself. After stumbling down the trail of desire for a lifetime and a fuckin half, this body of work started to take shape. A collection of stories about passion and loss, faith and sin and the valley of regret. I've been inspired by many writers: Chris Cornell, Ryan Adams, Johnny Cash, Christian Kellevander, Eric Turner---by many great artists: most notably Zeppelin, Blues Traveller, The Black Crowes, and a truly soulful street person in Vancouver who played a saxophone in an empty doorway on a rainy night. Mostly I have been blessed to be in the good care of kids that I've helped, and friends that I've stumbled with, and loves that I've drunken---and those spirits have shaped me into the man who spins these tales. So mine are the stories that were written by others along the way. I'm just the guy who ended up tellin' em.I edited my profile with Thomas Myspace Editor V4.4 (www.strikefile.com/myspace))
