About Me

I might be your worst nightmare - I'm a BOSTON RED SOX fan with a microphone. Outside of my wife saying "yes" and the birth of my children, October 2004 might have been the best time of my life. October 2007 was pretty cool, too. Fenway Park is one of my favorite places in the whole world.
I have a rather busy schedule these days, working what amounts to TWO full-time jobs, doing two things I truly love.
Monday through Friday mornings from 6-10 AM, I wake you up on WDHA with Nancy Reamy and Tina Lang. Traffic and weather four times an hour, I go easy on (most) Yankee fans, and we play a great mix of music that you can't get anywhere else.
I also host the only free-form rock show left on commercial radio in the tri-state area every Sunday morning from 6:30-10 AM - All Mixed Up . It's everything from the Monkees to Frank Zappa, from Toad the Wet Sprocket to Bruce Springsteen. That link will take you to the message board for the show where you'll be able to check out the playlists from each show.
Besides the radio stuff (where else can you get paid to play CDs?), I also teach baseball at Professional Baseball Instruction in Upper Saddle River (where else can you get paid to play catch with a kid?). Oh, and my son dominated his coach-pitch team as a seven-year old! (That's an inside joke, son.)
And once in awhile in my spare time...I play in a 5-piece rock band with Maury Rutch , Tim Perry, Chris Lewis and Mark Ficken. You can see our schedule here .
I'm also very into Martin guitars and spend FAR too much time on The Unofficial Martin Guitar Forum .
