"I am just a Cowboy, Lonesome On The Trail..."-Thin Lizzy-
Current Music Projects:
I sing for Pontius Pilate Sales Pitch: a 5 piece started by myself and Nate Kelley (myspace.com/ppsp). Mix of indie rock/alternative, story telling elements.We are working on lots of new material and I can truly say that I LOVE my band!
+ ACID ARROW w Zac Shaw , which you must be prepared for as mind melting.
Also did some work last year w Vin Alfieri from The Smash Up. Don't know when or if anything will come of it.
At some point should be starting an as yet un-named project with Fred Waring (Crisis, Stalwart) and Jesse Cunningham (Fuse, Melancholy,Knucklediver, Long Ben)!
Also, FITS OF FURY with rapper Bobby Delicious is a hip hop project and it is D-O-P-E! We still have a lot of unmixed songs you'll hopefully hear sometime.
Plus, a mellow duo called Starlet Skylark with Liana Turner whenever we can get it rollin'.
Music and writing fuel me. Used to sing for the bands Fuse, Knucklediver, Melancholy, The Electric 10 Inch and DIVEST in the Woodstock-Kingston area, since 93'.
In My BLOGS Now I have featured I WILL BE SCENE, journals of 12+ years growing up in the Kingston/Woodstock scene. It features stories of all my bands plus many more like 3/ Jerk Magnet/Anadivine/Mearth/Coheed and Cambria/Bad Brains/Dripping Goss and other people related to the scene. I am uploading it in bits and pieces.(THERE IS A LOT MORE NOT UP YET).
FROM NOW ON MY "I WILL BE SCENE" BLOG IS GOING TO JUST BE PUBLISHED RANDOMLY WHEN I CAN UPLOAD OLD STUFF AND NOT IN DESCENDING ORDER LIKE BEFORE AS THAT SLOWS ME DOWN AND INTERUPTS REGULAR BLOGGING ANYWAY, SO TO READ IT ALL UP TO DATE YOU JUST HAVE TO SUBSCRIBE.
Have been writing for Crushermagazine.com lately and have recently interviewed Down, Christian Death,As I lay Dying, Three, Dillinger Escape Plan, Prong, Made out of Babies, She Wolves and more!
Sometimes write for French Music Magazines VERSUS MAGAZINE & Noise Magazine and used to write for Sonic Product.com, thehvscene.com and The Woodstock Times.
My old band DIVEST were on Dr Know of BAD BRAINS label FKM Records and he put out our 7" for "Open Door Revelation" and "Brand New Lie". We did a full length record produced by Dr Know, Dany Ilchuck (produced Leeway), Chris Bittner and Mike Birnbaum called "Ghost Town Reckoning" hopefully to be released someday. Various communication breakdowns in the band and at the label hindered the release.
Some tracks are here:( myspace.com/divest)
I've booked many DIY shows. Fuse put out one cd "Organizm" and we're on a comp "Error 404: Not Found" along with shabutie, jerk magnet, mearth, teknodrome and many more (very rare but you can get 'em @error404records.com and sell that shit on ebay!). Been lucky to be in some really fun bands. Fuse was a blast. Miss those shows.
Sometimes don't sleep that well. The Dub of King Tubby is a cure all. "Country Girl Dub"
I don't let much bullshit slide.If you don't want me to tell people you have done asshole things, be cool to me. It's the golden rule. I don't claim to be perfect either.
I am an author working on a fantasy book currently and have one finished unpublished novel called "We All Try To Win", part of a trilogy called "Lithe Lessons" available free at lulu.com
Wrote an article/retrospective called "More Than Down-An 8 Convulsions Retrospective" about the early days of the female fronted metal band Crisis,which is up in my blogs.
It features interviews w/Crisis as well as Norman Westberg of the Swans and producer Stevie McCallister (Crisis, Agnostic Front, Brutal Truth).

...Rolling Stones - "Loving Cup" Lyrics
I'm the man on the mountain, come on up.
I'm the plowman in the valley with a face full of mud.
Yes, I'm fumbling and I know my car don't start.
Yes, I'm stumbling and I know I play a bad guitar.
Give me little drink from your loving cup.
Just one drink and I'll fall down drunk.
I'm the man who walks the hillside in the sweet summer sun.
I'm the man that brings you roses when you ain't got none.
Well I can run and jump and fish, but I won't fight
You if you want to push and pull with me all night.
Give me little drink from you loving cup.
Just one drink and I'll fall down drunk.
I feel so humble with you tonight,
Just sitting in front of the fire.
See your face dancing in the flame,
Feel your mouth kissing me again,
What a beautiful buzz, what a beautiful buzz,
What a beautiful buzz, what a beautiful buzz.
Oh, what a beautiful buzz, what a beautiful buzz.
Yes, I am nitty gritty and my shirt's all torn,
But I would love to spill the beans with you till dawn.
Give me little drink from your loving cup.
Just one drink and I'll fall down drunk.
