About Me


guitarist. recording workshop graduate. former college radio DJ at WMUL (marshall university) 1997-1998, and former editor in chief for RIGHT UP FRONT.COM 1998-2002. the site featured hardcore and metal news, interviews, live pics, tour dates, etc... it was run by me and my former wife jenn (who took many of the live pics displayed here). it became quite popular and respected in the metal community and, at it's peak, was getting thousands of hits per day. here inlies some of the interviews we conducted and most of the live pics we took. i will be adding more as soon as i can find them. i hope to soon have videos available. we managed to film some 130+ concerts, and i am beginning to dump them. currently, i live in rocky mount, NC, and am pursuing my own musical career. i have written a shit-ton of songs, and hope to be recording a demo very soon. as for the site, who knows, the ultimate plan was to revive it around the time the demo came out... we'll see - first things first.
