About Me

I started playing guitar when I was 10. My mom gave me a acoustic guitar and told me to learn 5 songs out of a book. I learned 4 and stop. But in 87 I bought a guitar because another guitar player said I should pick it up after seeing how fast I was learning the bass. I've been in a few bands the first being called Zen Leather back in 94 which had my Cousin Tony, James Bond, Ron Gorman, and I. We lost Jame's and added Pat Birdsell and looked for singers as we called ourself Wings and fate. Afer a bit we changed the name to Straitjacket and lost a couple of people in 96 but added some great people enter Ray Coon and Phil Barber. had a great 2 year run and I went to college...lol while in college I started a band called TripLX which had Evol and I in it. We made songs but couldn't find people that wasn't hooked on drugs to make it to practice. Then me a a friend enter a band called Monkeyfinger which did covers of Classic Rock. Then in 04 My cousin and James bond join forces once again and I joined back up with them and we got Ron back and called ourselves Loki. We played one gig that we played some of our tunes and a 4 of a Rapper named twilight. We lost our drummer and I left because things was just moving to slow.I edited my profile with Thomas Myspace Editor V4.4 (www.strikefile.com/myspace)A IMG{ border-style:none; } a I edited my profile with Thomas' Myspace Editor V4.4..> ..My first real band Straitjacket playing at the Whisky A Go Go in 97 Song is a song I wrote called Earths Edge!!
