About Me
I've been married to my beautiful wife, Ashleigh, for almost 5 years and we have 2 amazing children. My daughter Shelby is 3 1/2 and my son Patrick is 2 years old. My family the most important thing in my life.
I was the bass player for the band Tora Tora from the years 1987-1994. We had two records "Surprise Attack" and "Wild America" which were both huge hits for us. We toured for almost five years with bands such as L.A. Guns, Dangerous Toys, Kix, The Cult, and Bonham, and even opened up for Alice Cooper. Of course, when Nirvana came out around '94, we sort've fell off the map, along with every other band with long-ass hair and tight-ass pants!!
I later reunited with Tora singer, Anthony Corder and a fellow Memphis musician/friend Hal McCormack to join Homemade Flavor, which ran from around 1996-2002. Pretty much a club favorite around Memphis for a few years.
And lastly, around 2002, I joined the band Rail, with former Roxy Blue singer/Saliva drummer Todd Poole, that lasted for about 2 years. Definitely a different sound than I was used to playing, but had a great time doing it, and got some great experiences, such as getting the chance to go to Cleveland and open up for Disturbed and Chevelle.
I now work at FedEx working in Dangerous Goods, and in my spare time, I love to go 4-wheelin', fishing, and all kinds of other redneck type shit. LOVE going to see TN Vols football games and Memphis Tiger basketball games. I still love music, even though I don't play in a band anymore....I'll always be a rocker at heart.
I pretty much spend all my free time roughing around with my two VERY rambunctious kids and even MORE rambunctious dogs! We've got 2 boxers, Peyton and Jorja. Peyton's already over 85 lbs, and even though Jorja's still a puppy, she's WELL on her way to catching up OR surpassing him!! They all keep me young, though!!
