RED HÖT - Psalm 23:4

Daniel In The Lion’s Den
The above, is a painting of Daniel in the Lion’s Den. It’s from a story in The Bible of a man, Daniel, who was set up by some men after he was chosen by the king to be his replacement. For Daniel’s punishment which he did not deserve, he was sentenced to spend the night in the lion’s den. Even with certain death all around him, Daniel’s faith in God was very strong, and he believed that God would spare him and keep him safe. In this painting, you see Daniel looking at the sunlight shining through the window instead of the lions around him. This captures how in spite of everything, Daniel kept his focus on God, no matter what.
...I relate a lot to this story and painting right now...

My main passion lately is I just love playing the hekk outta my guitar!!! It’s so cathartic, it’s unbelievable. I don’t need pills, powder, or booze - the guitar is my drug. I used to be in bands and all that shizzle, til the 90s came and I just quit music completely for about 6 or 7 years. In an era where real talent was spit on while “grunge” was propogated as “the best thing since The Beatles and Rolling Stones” ((((Oh PLEASE!!! Put a bullet in my head now, I’ll even buy the gun!!!!!!!))), I just didn’t wanna be a part of it. Then, in around early 2001, the passion came back and here I am. So since then I’ve just been playing, writing, and recording solo instrumental stuff. I’m not a shredder - I don’t write for musicians or to impress them. I just try to create lots of different and cool moods and atmospheres in my music, from straight ahead riff rockin’ butt shakers, to deeper emotional slower pieces with lush keyboards and different textures. I’m even working on a pure techno / dance track (with cool guitars - hekk yeah!). It doesn’t always come out like I hear it in my big fat head, but rather than get in the way of it, I try to “connect” to it and let IT tell me where it should go or what should happen next. I just try to let it happen (((If you’re a friend and heard some of my mp3s, maybe you’ll know what I mean))). I have a few tracks now, and working on lots of others. I have too many ideas going at once, and all this on top of work! So combined with me being quite a procrastinator, it might take a little while but as soon as I finish a large amount of complete songs, I’ll try to put a CD out.

Other than that I also workout at a gym. It’s a cool way to kill your frustrations and get healthy at the same time. It’s either that or going to a bar, getting loaded, punching someone in the face who looks at you the wrong way, and spending the night in jail with your new 225 lbs. “friend”, who is affectionately known around the cellblock as “Bubba”. I’d rather skydive without a parachute - it somehow makes more sense...
By the way, just so I make myself perfectly clear: Bus exhaust fumes make daddy dizzy! lol! What can I say? I heard this line in one of Letterman’s Top Ten Lists one night and I think it’s hilarious. Shoot me!
