I'm a rocker. I like most all of it. From the time "The Beatles" got on drugs thru todays rock. If they keep it true, keep it real, & don't sell out, I most likly dig it.Movies
I'm a big action move fan. Love big adventure, high drama, and lots of action. Big fan of the 007 Bond flicks. Can't say I don't like a Jenna flick thrown in here & thereTelevision
Books
Not a fan of reading. I'd much rather be jamming or fishing or anything other then sitting & reading.Heroes

About me:
Male
39 and holdin'
Middle River, Maryland
United States
..
My 1st love is my family. I am married to a beautiful
redhead who is my insperation, lover, and my best friend. We have two great kids (boy & girl) who we couldn't be more
proud of. My mom & dad are the greatest parents ever and my
mentors.
I have a good job but work way to many hours.
I'm an "Orioles" fan and a "Raven" maniac !!!
Love hanging out with our friends who mean the world to us
(you know who you are), bass fishing, drinking beer, & spending as much time possible doing what is the
2nd love of my life - My music !!
I am currently drumming for "Krug", an original Baltimore based rock band. Prior,I was the drummer for "Den of Germs"
"Highwire", Blackball", "GRiM430", "Purple Jimmy", "Porno
Funk", "The Funk Junkies", "Pranx","Deadly Aggressor", and
Combat recording artist "Have Mercy". Over the years I have
had to opportunity to play up & down the East Coast, parts
of the Mid West, Canada, and through Europe. These bands I
have played for have opened for national acts such as :
"Megadeth", "L.A. Guns", "Great White", "Vanilla Ice","Kix"
"Overkill","Nuclear Assault", "King Diamond", "Quiet Riot"
"Coal Chamber","Atari Teenage Riot","Wrath Child", "Agent
Steel","Doro Pesch", "Chirs Cafferty","Joey Belladona", "Lynch mob",
and more. It's been a great ride but never made it to where I wanted -
at least not yet !!
