About Me

So...what's up? I just got married last year and became a stepdad. I am married to the most beautiful and intelligent woman in the world (how did I get so lucky?). I dig music (obviously) and I play hockey (I'm a goalie). I've been playing guitar since I was 7. I was born and raised in Fort Wayne, Indiana (aka, Ft. Fun, Fort Waste, etc.), but I have lived and been in bands in the following metropolitan cities: Dallas, Louisville (pronounced Loo-vull), Memphis, Columbus, Nashville, and a teeny town outside Cincinnati called Peebles. I've been in so many bands, I can't name them all, but the most prominent (and signed) band was SCREAM MACHINE (EMC Records/Nashville). I am now the lead guitarist for the hard rock group THE MIGRAINES. Check us out at http://www.myspace.com/migrainesMy daughter keeps me pretty busy, I can't even begin to say enough about her and her life. I love to watch her play soccer and you should hear her sing...look out Joss Stone!!! I have a stepson who's going to be the next John Leclair (he's a hockey player for those who don't know what I'm talking about).So...that's me in a very small nutshell...drop me a line and tell me about yourself and maybe we can "add" each other...Myspace Graphics

My Interests

I am into music (too many types to mention), hockey (I am a goalie), football, going to concerts, hanging out with friends, working in my recording studio. I am in 3 bands so I keep plenty busy, but what really keeps me going is my daughter. I love to watch her play soccer!

I'd like to meet:

NO one!

Music:

Bands I like??? METAL: Alice in Chains (RIP), Tool, DarkNewDay, Crossfade, Tool, Chevelle, Pantera (RIP D-bag), Priest, Maiden, COC, Queensryche, Rush, and some chump ass band from Louisville via Memphis via Nashville called Scream Machine.ROCK: Jeff Buckley, Our Lady Peace, The Stones, Zeppelin, The Police, The Cure, The Used, Duran Duran, Pearl Jam, Nirvana, U2, and the list goes on and on and on...RAP: Ludacris, Snoop, Dre, Em, NWA, Cypress Hill, 219 (what up RocVicious and Trey?), and some lame-o producer who calls himself "THE HAMMER".Styles that I dig upon are jazz, blues, soul, disco, country (mostly old but some new), reggae, classical, pop/punk.To sum up my musical tastes: I'll listen to anything to check it out and see what's up with it...there isn't much I refuse to listen to (unless it's Jessica Simpson...blech!).

Movies:

Raising Arizona, Office Space, Napoleon Dynamite, Monster's Ball (Halle Berry...oooo yeaahhhhh), Pirates of the Carribean, Full Metal Jacket, The Patriot, Star Wars. I like action, historical and biographical movies. Not too hip on chick flicks...unless she's buying tix AND popcorn (and an X-Large soda!!!)

Television:

No time for it...

Heroes:

Randy Rhoads, Stevie Ray Vaughn, Jimi Hendrix, George Lynch, Yngwie Malmsteen, Dimebag (RIP)...
