About Me


About me:
GREAT DEAL OF NOISE

Great Deal of Noise resides where beauty and distortion coexist. Heavier influences blend with softer touches to create a three dimensional expressive space. Love for music and attraction to cinema are evident in GDofN's compositions. Their music is a lush, enveloping drama that propels the listener through an auditory screenplay. GDofN gives you the subject and the soundtrack, let your mind do the rest...
GDofN recorded, mixed and produced the album.

Hello ~ I grew up in a music oriented family. Grandpa played in a band until his death & his love of music trickled down to everyone in the family. Each of us performed in one way or another throughout our lives.
Personally I started taking piano lessons at the age of 7. Also played trumpet & vocals. I've sang & played in church, performed in the HS Jazz Band, sang in barbershop quartets, played in a rock band, & even was in a polka band for awhile. Throw me a nickel & I'd do the soft shoe boogie.
As life progressed I joined the U.S. Air Force and worked Recon at RAF Mildenhall, England. Met Prince Charles once.. sorta.. we were in the same room. He's short & although I thought of wrestling his crown away, I decided against it. After I was discharged, I became system administrator, blah blah. Typical shirt & tie staring out the window.
Around the age of 35 I was diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis. That pretty much sucked but we all need hobbies. It has definitely slowed me & even caused me to retire from work, but I really do have a very good life. I have always loved life & the more I live it, the more I hope I wake up again tomorrow.
I've now found myself on this myspace thang. The news said "all the pervs are on Myspace" & I hate to miss a party. Once here I found it was just Tom & me & Tom ain't much of a talker. So I decided to search for the Allman Brothers. They aren't here but from that one search I musta caught a bug. Since then it seems I've been searching for bands, comedians, businesses relative to same & fricken HTML code. At the moment I seem to fall under "this is stupid but why can't I stop" category.
So if your a budding musician, band, a circus clown or anyone/biz that has something to offer "my friends", then feel free to add. Who knows.. you may find a new contact, a new friend, or at the very least we have the makings for one helluva party.
