solid; creative; simple when necessary; hard-hitting; sparse, tasteful fills. more groove, less flash.
I'm a drummer and studio engineer in Los Angeles. As a drummer, I've recorded a few albums, toured nationally, been flown to Austria, and met a lot of amazing people. I work regularly as an engineer, and am fortunate to be able to play drums on a fair amount of those recordings as well. I'm the drummer for Socadia and have a lockout in North Hollywood to use as needed. Also, I do a bit of drum teching and live sound when my schedule allows.
Outside of music, I love escaping to the desert in Nevada and Arizona, or up in the mountains, or anywhere else where I can block out the noise of humanity. I'm a computer dork, a science dork, and read constantly: music business books, accounting books, news magazines, internet articles, novels - anything I can get my hands on really. If you stop learning you become irrelevant. My first real job was a newspaper columnist, and I write lyrics if the band wants me to. Click here to read some.

yeah, it was stuck in my head for months, and finally, I overcame what we call, "banana phone". It took a couple of weeks to get over the temptation of wanting to watch and laugh hysterically. I felt like a druggie, going through withdrawals, but somehow I made it through. Until, today... thanks Dusty. Now I must endure the banana phone all over again!
:p
How are you? Still recording?? I finally visited LA (1st time in my adult life). I went to visit Steph. It's alright, but I still don't like it. Hope all is well.
I'm not sure, I haven't thought too much about the layout yet. How have you been? I am on tour as a roadie for 2 German synth-pop bands. We just played Detroit and we're heading into Canada tomorrow. Below zero weather is way different from SoCal weather. I am freezing my ass off, lol.
