About Me



I’m a musician, I play drums most of the time but not always. Here are some bands/artists I’ve been lucky enough to play with: Crash, Sulfur, A/N, Jim White, Terry Hall, Jay Munley, C. Gibbs, Abby Travis, Kristian Hoffman and The Snakes (I’ve probably forgot a bunch). I am currently a member of The Rentals and we’ll be busy making a record until the summer, so stay tuned. I started my own band a few years ago called Random AOK, which I hope to start up again as soon as I can. There are some songs on this page from some of these various projects and I’ll try to keep putting up different stuff especially some of my home studio experiments. I also have a bunch of video footage from the last Rentals tour that I’m trying to compile and edit so look out for some of that soon. In general I’m a bad myspacer but I’m hoping to keep up on it this year or at least keep my content interesting (to whom, I don’t know). Cheers! D.
