I'd like to meet:
About Me: Music has been my life since my first 8-track player in the 70's.
I make music.
I listen to music.
I teach people to sell music equipment.
I help people buy musical equipment.
I am OCD but I'm also ADD. I'll obsess about a project but ask me a question and I'm off doing something else.
I believe our duty as a sentient, free-thinking species is to nurture and further the growth of our species.
I care more about others than I do myself.
I am extremely high strung but I'm also lazy and indecisive. I get antsy around the house but can't decide what to do or where to go.
I operate a music store where I employ 30 musicians. Do you know how hard it is to get 30 musicians to wake up on time, look presentable, and be productive for 8 hours a day? Next to impossible but I enjoy the challenge because musicians are the best people to spend time with. I do it 12 hours a day, 6 days a week and I love it.
Check out some of my electronic music: Frankenbeatz

Cool Videos: My first video acting debut. I played a janitor. A damn good one, too:
Old footage of my old band REO Speedealer live in San Francisco circa 1997. We did like a million songs in 15 minutes:
