My Interests

Family, kids, music, hunting, camping or any other outdoor activity, making people laugh, tickling my kids, having quiet time to myself in my bathroom. "Oh and did I mention I love playing the drums, drums,drums, drums, and more drums".

I'd like to meet:

God, if he allows me and when the time is right, my father again, also Mike Portnoy (drum'r/Dream Theater) Carter Beauford(drum'r/D M Band) Most all the drummers pictured on the left, anyone who is kind, courteous and makes the best of their life. Carpe Diem!
