About Me

Hey. I haven't been to many shows for quite a while, still lurking in the background taking her easy since I began my sabbatical from the music scene. I've been busy doing a bunch of family stuff, working the day job, being a Grandpa :) My schedule always gets shot to hell last minute, so when I say I am coming to a show, it is sincere at the time but then life happens. Brad at Cyclone has been very gracious with my silence, can't really do a lot of scouting when you're not going to shows can you? I'm going to get back in soon enough, almost back on track. My son is pissing off to see the world at the end of this month. He's going alone, with his backpack, his Strat, and his little Martin guitar. Starting in NZ and who knows from there. Off to see the world and get all growed up. :) So my house will be just my wife and I and our youngest angel Ally. It's going to be weird for all of us. Been writing a lot. Not reviews or interviews/articles etc. like in the past, just personal work. I love writing so much, time is my enemy, even though I manage my time quite efficiently. Ebaying quite a bit, but buying instead of selling ( what's with that?). Spent untold hours on upgrading my fish tank and I've got it just about where I want it. Still have much to learn though. Picked up my third Humidor recently and cigar collecting is a new passion I've adopted recently.See you soon! M..

My Interests

staying alive. Currently writing a short story that's turning out to be a bit more, I'm in one of those zones right now where it just pours out naturally, I'll see where it goes I guess. I'm calling it " In depth, but not deep- A conversation."

I'd like to meet:


Movies:

I like the oldies.

Television:

Yes, I own one.

Books:

Canadian authors-All of Mordecai Richler, but especially 'Barney's Version', an absolute classic. All of Robertson Davies. Timothy Findley.Tolstoy ( I haven't read W&P) But Anna Karenin is probably one of the best books ever written because of the way it was written. Hunter S. Thompson Camus, Hemingway., Vonnegut jr., Eliot, Rushdie, Faulkner, Joyce, Dunning, Orwell (down and out in Paris & London is a classic fav. of mine), Steinback, Dante, Poe, Eco, Wilde, Dostoevsky

Death

John Lennon was once quoted as saying that death was really just like getting out of one car and getting into another one. I always liked this quote. I tend to think of  more as an unopened prese...
