About Me

I have played with the likes of: the Wildgeese, in Rochester, NY; the Manchester Pipe Band in Manchester, CT; the Pipes and Drums of the Manchester Regional Police and Fire in Manchester, CT; assorted celtic musicians; Rod Stewart; Braemar Pipeband in St. Catherines, Ontario; Flogging Molly, at Molly Malone's Pub in West Hollywood, CA, and assorted rock musicians (in some cases the term musician is used in the loosest sense of the word). I have performed in La Boheme, Grease, Man of La Mancha, The Fiddler on the Roof, Cats, The Pirates of Penzance, Sweeny Todd, Brigadoon, sang in the All-Eastern Chorus, NYSSMA Conference All-State Chorus and other such things that I cannot recall at the moment. I've recently played with Classic Albums Live at the Waterstreet Music Hall when they did Back in Black. It was great fun and I hope to do it again. They were great musicians.This page was designed and put up by the lovely and gracious Joan Wilcox.
