About Me

I play bass. I dabble in many other things, but bass is what pays the bills. Alright, maybe a bill. I used to play in go for broke, i now play in The Invasion, I toured as a member of Shawn McDonald's band, and am currently writing and re-writing- trying to apease my frustrating and ever elusive solo muse.Thanks to touring (I guess due to what transpired on that tour rather than the tour itself)-the wife and I now have a little girl. She's got her mom's nose, my eyes, her mom's resolve and my selfishness. She enjoys sleeping on my recently larger and softer stomach, pooping, and crying.
