Hhhmmmmm....How to describe myself; I live a pretty crazy life, wouldn't have it any other way. Why waste one third of your life with your eyes closed and miss smelling the roses or...HEARING KILLER MUSIC!!
I own Shooter's Hideaway. I've been around the bar industry for a long time. I remember when we had a number of live music venues in Des Moines, but now there's only a few. My main focus is the local music scene. I've been involved in music since I was a kid and have had a passion for it all my life. I love puttin' a stranglehold on my axe and rip out a riff with my bros (Mark, Patrick, Chris & Don)in our band Maxx Menagerie. Check us out on myspace or come rock out with us at Shooter's!
I've been fortunate over the years to have seen & met many many artists - all genre's of music, from blues, country, classic rock to the heaviest metal. Nothing better than seeing a live show!!
Guess what?!! The number one benefit of "being owned" by a live venue is I get to see a ton of great shows!!! Oh, the "being owned by" grammar? I'm not cryin' about the hrs, I love it and I'd be awake anyway!
I want to encourage everyone that likes music to go out and support live local music. There are only a few live music venues left and they're all offering you a variety of music. Broaden your musical horizon and go see bands wherever they're playing...not just your favorites, but band you haven't seen before...try a new flavor, you might like it.
I love to ride!! Nothing better than being in the wind. My wife and I love riding out of town with our friends to go out to eat or just sight-seeing. My wife & I love hangin' with our friends and getting out and burnin' up some miles in the wind.
