About Me

Well, I've been married for 20 years now to Dianne. I have 2 kids, Daniel 16 & Emily 12. I've been playing guitar since I was about 13, and still play every night. I guess if I were to label myself, I'd call me a blues player, but I also love rock, folk, country and 60's soul. Sport wise, I love Australian Rules, being a fanatical Carlton supporter. I also follow golf, cricket, tennis & Rugby Union.Also, check out the MySpace site for my band, DELAYED REACTION. We do classic rock covers, Status Quo, The Angels, INXC,ACDC, Hunters and Collectors, Eric Clapton, Lynyrd Skynyrd, Bob Seger, etc. Myspace Backgrounds

Television:

24, Extras

Books:

Read? Me? Actually, I'm more into Non Fiction. As for novels, I'd rather wait for the movie. You find out what happens much quicker.

Heroes:

Groucho Marx (the funniest man ever. Fact.His brothers weren't bad either). Muhammad Ali (The most inspirational sportsman I've ever seen). John Lennon (We all knew who John Lennon was and what he stood for, warts and all. He didn't hide behind any false image, and I admire him immensely for that. The world would be a far greater place if he was still here).
