About Me


Hey there, I am Mike. I am a pretty happy person most of the time. Everyday is filled with music. I am a professional drummer and see over 25 different students a week. I work at a studio, I produce and engineer music and somehow, some way, I am able to make money doing it. So that is probably why I am happy and laid back, because I am self-employed and love what I do. And teaching kids to piss off their parents and neighbors by playing drums...I mean, that alone puts a smile on my face. Got several great projects going on right now but I am most thick into a CD by the Umbrella Thieves, SAD TRANSPLANTED LANDSCAPE, which I co-produced, engineered and played drums on. It will be in stores soon. Besides music, I like playing video games, watching movies and working out (which my skinny ass has neglected for a few too many months!) And yes, I am also a huge fan of roller coasters and have had a unique fascination with them since I was young. Oh yeah, one more thing, I like girls who actually have goals and want to do something in this world besides trying to look hot. If your hot, you don't have to try, and if you have goals, then you are a smart woman, and smart women who are funny and understanding AND hot...man, talk about a turn-on. Now I have a question for you, visitor to my page. Have you ever pondered the magnitude of your existence? Have you ever thought in the third-person while remaining in the first? Are you a slave to the confines of 'modern life?' Don't be a slave. Think outside the box. Don't believe the lie. Remain true to your ideals based on the caverns in your mind, not the trinkets that are offered on a plate. There is no plate. There are no trinkets. Set yourself free. Break the stereotype. Maybe then, visitor to my page, maybe then you will understand the meaning of existence.

Drum lessons...

Yes...that is right, people now pay me to share my love of playing drums which I think is really cool and is the ideal thing for me in my life at this point. Because most of my students are kids, fun...
