About Me


- Check it out...
I do not add "cute talking animals" to my friends list - don't even try it. I do not add "model wannabees" who want to be worshipped by "as many guys as possible" (I'm not impressed by you posing with your ass pointed towards the camera). I do not add people that I have nothing in common with when I look at their profile. If you are in doubt e-mail me first - I respond to every e-mail I get. If you abuse me with event invitation requests I will cut your ass in a flash!
Now here's a little more about me...
I record bands and sound as a profession. I work in the sound department for Local 52 I.A.T.S.E. film union in NYC (yes I've held a mic over Tony Soprano's head and put my feet up on his office desk at the Bada Bing!) I sing for a band called The SERPENTEENS. I have played the bass on 3 VOLTAIRE CDs as well as recording most of his work. I will be handling Bass duties as a member of MISTER MONSTER in 2008. Yeah I'm a busy boy. I drink Guinness and I love to party at the bar and hang out with my girlfriend Toni. Is there anything else to life? Nah, it's fine just the way it is...
I do most of my band recording work out of PLANETGREY STUDIOS (www.planetgrey.com) but somtimes I'm on a TV show a video or location for a commercial or a film.
I used to throw a party every Friday at the RAVEN CAFE called ROCKBOX. Rock And Roll All Night - 10pm to 4am! DJ Jim and I used spin all the favorites and it was a hell of a party! Now we do it at Boulevard Tavern sometimes just for fun since the Raven burned down.

My Interests

Recording sound, gigging, spinning records and living my life with as little drama as possible! So all assholes PLEASE FUCK OFF!

I'd like to meet:

"I'm a mushroom cloud laying motherfucker - motherfucker! I'm the mother fuckin' guns of Navarone!

My Blog

A random act of kindness...

Being a cynical New Yorker I am always looking for the scam. Constantly. It's just a fact of life in the city. However, I was on my way to work today and as I stepped off the curb to hail a cab, I re...
