About Me

i got my big break playing keytar for the bill gaither trio back in 86 at the meadowlands. shortly after, i went on tour with nelson and coined the phrase let's get serious about having fun. it's referenced in their hit album after the rain. i've always wanted a st. bernard and i'm constantly searching for a place that i can get decent viking food. my current interests include horseback archery, internal medicine, rollerboogie, american gladiators and one day i hope to fight for a cause i believe in.
