NEW BAND COMING SOON "STURGIS"........

About Me

After years on the road as a Tour Manager, Director of Security, Mercenary Drummer and general Road Warrior, I "retired" from the full time music scene. After returning to school I worked as a Rescue Paramedic and Training Officer. Injuries ended that career, and after extensive physical rehab, I was able to return to golf, and eventually turn pro. Currently I am a PGA Class 'A' Golf Professional and Board Certified Sports Medicine Therapist. I specialize in teaching golfers with injuries or disabilities as well as professional golfers seeking better mechanics and more distance. I still play drums professionally. I guess I can't seem to grow up or get it out of my system. I was the Music Director and House Drummer at The Boxcar, Southern Connecticut's finest Live Music Venue for a great year and a half. During that time I played with an amazing assortment of artists, from Nikki Armstrong & Eddie King to Mitch Woods & Paul Zunno...I like to run with scissors and other sharp things, and I like anything that goes "BOOM".
I like animals...Especially the ones that taste good. I want to win powerball so I can rock n roll all night and party everyday. Until then, I'll continue to give golf lessons six days a week.
I'm professionally sponsored by Mapex Drums and Evans Heads. New pictures and video coming soon!!!...My new Mapex Saturn series drum kit is simply awesome. These could be the finest drums I've ever played! Thank you Joe @ Mapex and Jim D'Addario @ D'Addario Industries for your support! I use Paiste Signature Series Cymbals, and Vic Firth Sticks...Only (Joe's) CALZONE Cases are tough enough for me!Thanks for reading this far!
