About Me

I am a Sax player, living and working in the Dallas area. I have been playing for. let's just say, "a lot of years" however, this is somewhat of a renaissance for me. I gave up the music business for a period of about 15 years and just started playing again back in 1998 thanks to the encouragment and support from my wife of 15 years, Michele. The DFW (Dallas/Fort Worth) area is rich with many excellent, world class musicians and entertainers and I am proud to know many of them.I edited my profile at Freeweblayouts.net , check out these Myspace Layouts!
