About me:
I own & run a hardware store with my sister in Monsey, NY and love being my own boss. The business has been in my family for over 40 years. Its one of the few retail places left where you can actually talk to somebody, get good advice, and get out quickly without a drop of frustration.
I've been playing drums for 20 years and playing in various bands since I was 16. Mostly metal bands 'cause its the genre I enjoy the most but my solo projects and side projects are all softer to balance that out.
There is not a lot of time left in an average day between my store & my music, but I make sure that I always have plenty of time with my girlfriend/love of my life/future wife. I am madly in love with her and fall far deeper in love every single day. She is a tremendous positive influence on me and I am extremely lucky to have her in my life.
I LOVE MY MARIOLCIA!!!!

I wanted to run an idea past you. I don't know if your band is currently in rotation or not, but I am looking to get a rehearsal room with my new band and I wanted to know if your band was interested in sharing it with us? if not, would you by any chance know how we would go about getting a room of our own?
I hear you guys are going to Comic-con this weekend! I am quite jealous!

I am doing wonderful! I love my daughter. I love being a Mommy. I love my life. I'm at a very happy place right now and it feels good! The past two years of my life have been a crazy train which you know all about and it feels so good to finally be happy and content.
My brother and his girlfriend (the one I used to call the dumb hoe) had a baby boy today and he is an absolute dollface!! We're going to the hospital again in the morning and we'll be taking some pictures!
So...how are you and your pretty girlfriend?
Sometimes I miss your face and Mister Sakilla's too because where's there's Jrummer Joe, there's Mister Sakilla!

You should totally come to my to my 10pm show at the Cutting room on 0ct. 24th...
(then we can be more then just myspace friends.)
You can be like, "hey I saw you play once"
and I can be like "Hey didn’t I play for you once....yooooou..."
Seriously though,
you should come...otherwise we might be playing for just the bartender
and that would be just awful...
....I'm just saying.
be well
