______________________________________ I HAVE BEEN PLAYING BASS GUITAR SINCE I WAS 14,I STARTED ON THE DRUM'S AT THE AGE OF 7 AND THEN I PICKED UP THE BASS BECAUSE THERE WAS NO BASS PLAYER'S AROUND THAT COULD SING AND PLAY BASS,IT JUST CAME VERY NATURAL FOR ME,AFTER SINGING LEAD VOCAL'S AND PLAYING DRUM'S,I WENT BACK AND FORTH INTO MY 20'S PLAYING DRUM'S AND BASS IN ALOT OF LOCAL CHICAGOLAND BAND'S AND I PLAYED GUITAR IN A FEW JOLIET AREA BAND'S WHEN I GRADUATED FROM HIGH SCHOOL I HAD TO MAKE A VERY SERIOUS CAREER DECISION I HAD AN OFFER TO PITCH FOR LEWIS UNIVERSITY AND THE DAYTONA CUB'S,I THREW SIDE ARM AND I HAD A WICKED CURVE BALL THAT MY FRIEND JEFF REED'S FATHER TAUGHT ME TO THROW IN LITTLE L.BACK THEN THERE WAS NO THING AS A CLOSER AND I DID IT FOR THE FIRST TIME IN THE ALLSTAR GAME,KID'S WERE SHAKING WHEN I WOULD WIND UP AND AT AGE 11 I WAS THROWING A FAST BALL THAT WOULD CURVE IN 70MPH RANGE,I REMEMBER IN THE ALLSTAR GAME STRIKING OUT ALL 3 BATTER'S I WAS THE ONLY PICHER TO THROW A NO-HITTER AND HIT A DOUBLE AND A HOMER IN THE SAME GAME,THAT RECORD WENT INTO THE BOOK'S AT RIVAL'S LL,NOW IT IS HAUNTED TRAIL'S. ____________________________________________________________
_____________________________________________________ WELL BACK TO MY DECISION I LOVED MUSIC AND I LIVED AND BREATHED BASEBALL,AND I DECIDED TO FOLLOW MY MUSIC CAREER AND LESS THAN 3 MONTH'S OF GRADUATION I WAS PLAYING ON THE ROAD,AND I HAVE BEEN ON AND OFF THE ROAD SINCE THEN,I HAVE PLAYED IN SO MANY BAND'S YOU CAN GO TO MY OTHER SITE FOR THAT INFO WWW.MYSPACE.COM/ERNIEBALLFLANAGAN
