I have played in bands my whole life.

Influences
John Henry Bonham, Michael DeRosier, Ian Paice, WS Hollland, Tommy Aldridge, Frankie Banali, The studio guy who did all the Kiss records, Sib Hesian, Henry Vasquez, Carlton Bridge, and John Webster. I learned to play by sitting in my room and playing along with every record I could get my hands on. Kiss, Zeppelin, ACDC, April Wine, Rush, Pat Travers, Thin Lizzy, Lynard Skynard, and etc.
I edited my profile with Thomas Myspace Editor V4.4 (www.strikefile.com/myspace)
This page is setup for me to keep in touch with all the friends I have made and am about to make. I am moving to Nashville, Tennessee from Dallas, Texas area. I have alot of friends who use myspace so it should be fun. I have been playing music since I was a kid. I always had that performance bug. I am drawn to a stage to play drums or make an ass of myself. It doesn't matter, as long as it's on a stage.
Some of the better bands I have been in are Cozmedics, Rodeo Love Gods, Spiders, Nosmo Kings, Flux, Astrogin, Deborah Vial, Hillbilly Orchestra, Emersom Biggins, and Lowside.
In Nashville most recently Brittini Black. Her video was in the top 20 on GAC. Brittini is a wonderful singer/songwriter with Slugfest Records. Brittini is an awesome "feel good" artist.
The Sowing Circle. The Circle is a wonderful group headed up by Billy Falcon. I sit in occasionally when needed. Billy Falcon ia an accomplished song writer for people like Jon Bon Jovi. He has an awesome band and play every Thursday night at The Blue Bar.
Richie Owens' Farm Bureau. My latest adventures are with Richie Owens' Farm Bureau. A very talented group of folks. Most all are related and the band has a family feel to it. Richie is phenomenal, and they really made me feel welcome.
The Big News is The Farm Bureau has been recording it's 3rd release since the first part of the 2009. It's done for the most part. Richie is tightening things up and will soon be released.
Shoot The Messenger(STM). This is my cover band with the guys from Lonestar. Michael Britt, Cody Collins, and Kevin Van derHoffen. We play a couple of times a month around Nashville. We have to work around Lonestar's touring schedule.
Scott Lindsey. I had the opportunity to play with Scott at a military fund raiser. I was just filling in but I would play for Scott any time. He is an up coming singer/songwriter with a lot of talent. He has that low, big country voice that makes women quiver.
Those Pink Drums of yours were so big I had to jump up every time I hit the crash cymbals. lmao Check out my kids band 2nd Nature on myspace 2ndnaturerockshard Terry aka Wizard Wayne
Big Ferg! Dude, I've been great, and lucky to be staying really busy on the road and working on some cool projects in the studio. Haven't been downtown in a while. Hope you're doing well. What's the latest? Who you playing with right now. Hope to see you out soon, brother. J.T.

Tomorrow, and tomorrow, and tomorrow, Creeps in this petty pace from day to day, To the last syllable of recorded time; And all our yesterdays have lighted fools The way to dusty death. Out, out, brief candle! Life's but a walking shadow, a poor player That struts and frets his hour upon the stage And then is heard no more: it is a tale Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury, Signifying nothing.
