Band Members: I can solve this mass of igorance and pain if you understand one thing. I am inside you. This seemingly separate person you are talking to, isn't separate. We are one, and at the level we are one, none of your problems exist. As a wizard you do not live in the world, the world lives in you... Such is the nature of the deep connectivity that exists between all things in this holographic universe... You are the unconditional spirit trapt in conditions, like the sun in eclipse... So... Find the way that is ellusive and unknowable, effortless and everywhere. The world is your exercise-book, the pages on which you do your sums. It is not reality, although you can express reality there if you wish. You are also free to write nonsense, or lies, of tear the pages. Your conscience is the measure of the honesty of your selfishness. Listen to it carefully. The truth you speak has no past and no future. It is, and that's all it needs to be. You are never given a wish without also being given the power to make it true. You may have to work for it, however. We are all just spiritual children trying to find our way in this world... We less live on the planet than we ARE the planet. I just feel like I'm on a journey trying to get nowhere in particular and everywhere at the same time. The tao flows humbly down nourishing everything in it's path along the way... I want to be like that. NO I REALLY DO! In my life and as a drummer. I just get stuck feeling like all the turmoil in the world is driving me nuts! Sometimes I wish I could just leave, like Lao Tsu, run away, leave civilization, and live out the rest of my days in the mountains... without meeting a another soul... perhaps I'd become imortal and live forever as energy... that'd be nice. I wouldn't get cold, I wouldn't have to eat or drink. I wouldn't need to breathe. Or sleep. What if I get bored though?
I edited my profile with Thomas' Myspace Editor V4.4..
Influences: I have a ton if influences: Walt Whitman, Charles Bukowski, Thomas Cleary... but seriously, as far as drummers go, any and every drummer that I've ever heard has had some affect on me. Surely that counts for something... Yes, there are guys that stick out, both negatively and positively, or maybe I just might have made different choices... but really we're all in this thing together.
For now, I'll just give a few names to make you happy, but I really had something important to put here... I just can't remember now..
...CHAMBERS, COLAIUTA, DONATI, GADD, GARIBALDI, LANG, MINNEMANN, WATTS... These guys are taking drumming to a new level... oh, and yes there are many more, but you asked for MY influences... These are the cream for me.
