I like dogs, cars, drums, food, motorcycles, racquetball and cooking. I read alot.
Music
I sound just like John Bonham, but only the drunk Bonzo, while falling down stairs carrying a midget wearing a suit of armor in a 50 gallon drum.
As far as other drummers... Nathan Brown, Benny Greb, Jojo Mayer, J.J. Johnson, Abe Laboriel Jr., Billy Cobham, Apt. Q258, Josh Freese, Bogie Bowles, Matt Chamberlin, Travis McNabb, Brian Jones, Tracey Broussard, Phil Rudd, many more...
As far as music? The good kind.
Movies
anything odd. "Foot Fist Way" is particularly odd, and currently in bus rotation.
Television
anything not defined as "reality TV".
Books
mine, in progress...
Heroes
I like that show. The young girl is hot. Other than the show, I'd have to say my parents, because I totally sucked as a child, teen, and now as an adult.

About me: I was on myspace before most knew of it, I acquired many hundreds of friends while informing others of it, I was a successful and pleasant myspacer. Then a buddy posts a comment to me with a cartoon involving an up close and personal sexual act as its avatar, and some prick at myspace deleted me. Everything. All my friends, comments, emails, etc. No warning, just deleted. I've come back only at the stern urgings of many friends, but I do so reluctantly. Oh, and you, the pricko that deleted me last time, you're a prick. Prick..............................................
I play drums. Done it for/with lotza folks, including JIMMIE'S CHICKEN SHACK, EARTH TO ANDY, SICKSHOT...
TONIC...
EMERSON HART and now JOSH GRACIN. yup, I done gone country.
I even, on occasion, give culinary advice, but only early in the morning on the bus rocking sweet-assed bed head and hangover eyes...
PAISTE, VATER, AQUARIAN and DRUM WORKSHOP give me stuff. I'm currently working on deals with Vitamin Water and Subaru. Enjoy that upper level marketing...I've just signed with SONOR drums, and am completely stoked to be with ze Germans.
Here's something interesting... I really HATE being called "Murph". Almost anything else is better.
Oh yeah, hey friends, please chill out on the big ass graphics and comments. Also, please limit comments to topics such as how awesome I am and my sweet ass.
Who I'd like to meet: ...a few less people with the word "jackass" in their description, please.........................................
---below, you'll find a horribly distorted clip of an absolutely tasteless and terrifically enjoyable drum solo that acts as both segue and excuse for Josh to hit things... Sometimes tasteless and horrible hits the spot, just like Cracker Barrel. Eat it.
haha..you crack me up at the shows! :) haha... have a good few days off!! see you hopefully in Erie, PA or Dayton, PA....depends on class schedule.. take care!
Hey Murph I hear y'all are coming to KC in a couple weeks, I haven't seen y'all since the casino in Tulsa last fall. I may just have to come hang out :) Seeya!
Dude, I felt bad that you hadn't gotten a single comment or anything since January.... Figured I'd leave a recent one so that the rest of the world wasn't privy to the fact that you're a huge fucking loser....
Hey Kevin My sister and I were at the show you guys did at CMU in Mt. Pleasant, MI. We absolutely love going to the Josh Gracin shows! Thanks to all of you :) And I just read that you worked/work (?) with Emerson Hart who I am also a fan of!
