Firstly, my family... they are the ones that hold my life together. My super gorgeous wife and biggest fan... This is my wife and my amazing son on a day at the beach... Playing drums... keeps me sane when the pressure builds. This is my kit, customised by my own hands... My band... Great guys and GREAT music... check out FUCKERPUNCH. From top left clockwise is Rico, Chunk, Dr Maiden and Grunt. Meet the ladies of Punch. From left to right... Lizzie (Mrs Chunk), Trace (Mrs Grunt), Jayne (Mrs Maiden) and Barbara (Mrs Rico). The chip off the old block, my son (4 years old) shredding like the old man! I couldn't leave this bit without a quick pic of me palying... Here's a pic done by the great Oli... My 3D buddy... OK, check out my band here...
I have the perfect woman and a great group of friends... who else is there to meet?Any non-pretentious drummers. Playing drums is not a competition, it's not about who's the fastest or who's the most technical, it's about having fun. The moment you lose that you might as well give up.
As long as it has energy then I love it!!! Metal is my first love.

For me it would have to be comedy... I like most American sitcoms including King of Queens ... The five Mrs Bucanans ... Seinfeld ... Just shoot me ... Cheers ... Frasier ... Becker, etc. British comedies are the best though, with The office ... Nighty night ... Phoenix nights ... One foot in the grave ... Fawlty Towers ... Monty Python ... Time gentlemen, please ... The vicar of Dibley ... and so on.
I love the Discworld series by Terry Pratchett. His mind is definately on another planet...
My wife ... She has been through a lot and still comes out the other side with a smile on her face. My drummer heroes include these guys, in no particular order... Vinnie Paul Mike Bordin Matt McDonough Jason Bowld Charlie Benante Danny Carey Dave Lombardo Mike Portnoy Nick Menza Nicko McBrain Stewart Copeland Travis Barker Vinnie Appice And then there's these... Dimebag Kerry King The legendary Ronnie James Dio Howard Jones Glen Danzig The Drummers Forum
