About me: Grew up in Jackson and Grand Rapids, Michigan. Attended Indiana Univ. School of Music. Student of Kenny Aronoff from '93 to '96. Lived in Nashville for 2 years before moving to Lost Angeles in 1999 to join a great rock band named Hair of the Dog. Recorded two discs with HOTD, "Rise" in 2000 and "Ignite" in 2001. In 2002, I started backing up amazing slide-blues guitarist Eric Sardinas, with whom I toured many countries around the world including Spain, Italy, Portugal, France, Japan, Australia, Germany, England, Norway, and... umm.... Texas!
I am honored and thrilled to be the drummer for W.A.S.P! The last fall tour took us to 22 countries all over Europe and Asia. More insanity will be coming up this year, with plans to hit all 18 corners of the globe. Go to www.waspnation.com for updated news and tour dates. The new disc "Dominator" will be out shortly!
I currently play and endorse Pearl Drums, Sabian Cymbals, Ahead Drumsticks, and Evans Drumheads.
Who I'd like to meet: Drummers!!! Especially KISS' Peter Criss and Queen's Roger Taylor.

First of all thank you so much for the add! I am expecting the best show in Sofia and believe....no,i am sure will be amaizing! I am expecting this just like people expecting the light of the end of the tunnel. Wish you a lot of fun here in Bulgaria, many great moments and always wish you to come back ;)

Hi Michael. Welcome to Norway ! Thanks for the add. I bought tickets to Jevnaker, but the very next day it was announced on facebook that you also were going to play in my hometown Trondheim - and I can..t miss that - so now I..ve got tickets for two shows. Hope I get the time to be on both ! I have never been on a WASP concert, and really look forward to see you live. Hope to hear a lot from Babylon ++ I..ll probably be the one with a camera in front of my face - I hope to get some nice pictures of my favourite band (if anyone don..t mind and it..s not to dark in there) Have a nice day !
Bam's like her mommy...she's a sucker for reese's peanut butter cups. But only the shiny, gold-wrapped ones fyi. Thought I'd let you know so you don't waste your money on the holiday ones. ;)
You'll win her affection yet. Love you and miss you, Baby. <3
