D. Klein began playing guitar at age 10 and started his first band Cyanide at age 13 for the sole purpose of playing in an 8th grade talent show. Within two years, the band finally acquired a frontman and was renamed Lyger. Shortly after, the band began playing legitmate shows throughout the metropolitan Detroit area.
By 1998, Lyger began to disintegrate, and Dennis chose to leave the band and join Arizing, another local band that Lyger shared close ties with. Dennis remained a core member in Arizing for over five years, during which time the band had two releases on an independent Detroit indie label selling over 5,000 units; Medea Records (Factory 81, Auto Pilot, Cobalt Party Revolution, etc.), as well as playing shows all across the Midwest, at times for crowds up to 3,000 as an opening act.
By January 2004, Dennis chose to leave Arizing due to creative differences in addition to internal conflict (the band shortly after became defunct). In February of 2004, he joined label mates Auto Pilot solely as a live musician and toured regionally with the group for a year.
In spring of 2005, Dennis joined forces with Ypsilanti, Michigan's Coke Dick Motorcycle Awesome and toured regionally until summer of 2005, when Dennis left the band to move to Phoenix, AZ.
In 2007, the band Clockwork was reborn from a previous unfinished endeavor in Detroit started by Dennis, Mike Havrelock, and Ryan Brukwinski in March 2005. Mike LaRue took the throne as the new drummer, who also relocated to Phoenix for the band. Clockwork is currently writing new material and actively seeking a bassist while Klein and LaRue cover lead vocal duties. The band is expected to be playing shows by the end of 2007.

I will be out watching the Pistons/Celtics @ 6pm that game follows right after. Therefore, I shall message you text style and see where I am at come tip time!
Meh, one word: NOVEMBER. That's right it's only November. It's not like we just got blown out by a middling Chicago squad or anything......but I digress... Two Months: That's when I expect this Pistons unit to really start clicking given all the recent changes. (Coincidentely, that's about the same time I expect Shaq-Fu and the Phoenix "Grampas" to start their decline). Speaking of the PHX Geritols, what's with the newfound tough-guy attitude so far this year? Seems forced. Terry Porter is their new coach and wants them to play D for a change, we get it, just PLAY. I saw quite a few Pistons jerseys in the crowd on tv Sunday night. Perhaps some wise transplants sticking true to their roots?
so... I know you gave up on your real home's team a while ago.. but when was the last time the suns made it passed the playoffs? and what about that 30 pt. blow out detroit gave them last year? It took time for shaq to adjust last year.. didn't hear you squawking then... and the Pistons are the only team to beat the Lakers... I'll be there next thurs. to see how PHX handles those bad boys
Life has been pretty decent lately. Just super busy with school and I just got a job at the hospital as a student tech so I'm pretty stoked about that.
