About Me

Just another DAMN YANKEE living in the south!! Originaly from the deer-infested woods of NE Penn, I took my part headbanger, part underqualified computer nerd self to North Carolina where I still live and work today.

So what makes me rotten? Two things, really. One - I have an uncanny knack to piss people off. Some people like to hold back when they have an opinion; not me though... I let 'em have it. Second - My body is starting to fail me or "rot," if you will. The many years of alcohol (ahh, the band life) has contributed to such ailments as "seborrheic dermatitis" and "Avascular Necrosis." I've also dealt with "Sixth Nerve Cranial Palsy" and weight gain!

Besides wasting my efforts on "never-to-gain-recognition" websites, I'm also a drummer who has performed and recorded tracks for local acts "Moses" and "Torture Cell" (and yes, those tracks you hear on their site is indeed me, despite the lack of credit). After dismantling Torture Cell (after 5+ years), I joined the Winston-Salem based band, Cynonyte . Please visit the homepage to read recent news and to see some of the videos.


VIDEO

While visiting some of my high-school buds over the holidays (2005), I did a 2-day recording session for the band, HereIn After , based in Peckville PA.

A few other side projects include: rhythmANDbrews.net : a tutorial site for drummers who like beer!
Hippie's 79 Datsun 280zx restoration : A site to show the progress with my 280zx
TortureCell.com : A transformed site no longer tied to the band (hehe)

Another show at Burley's place. We need support and Burley needs beer sales so don't be a dick and bail (like you always do). You know who I'm talking about!

Southern Driving: When Licenses should be revoked!

Way too often I hear people talking about the differences between the North and the South. Me being ex-Northerner, I tend to jump in on this type of conversation. Religion is usually the number one to...
