About Me

Blah blah blah bellyache bellyache....... Whaddaya need to know? I spent 15+ years in the music business, mainly as a sound engineer, but also worked as a monitor engineer, merchandising person & drum tech (plus a short stint as a drummer in a band of ill repute). I worked most of that time for some well-known local & regional rock bands & clubs but some other genres as well and a few national acts, including a wonderful 4 year stint with the legendary BJ Thomas. Some odd gigs in the mix as well including getting to do audio work for a Titans/Rams Monday Night Football game at Adelphia Coliseum! Got off the road to settle down & have a family and now work a normal job (well, it's in state government if you wanna call THAT normal). I have two kids who are the greatest thing to ever happen to me in my life. Here on Myspace to connect with old friends, maybe pick up a few new ones with common interests, & for the music. I look at Myspace as mindless fun and it should be kept that way. Not looking for 1000 new friends nor to hear 1000 amateurish bands, so please if you submit a friend request, have something in common with my interests or it's jackhammer time on the deny button!
