About me:
Originally from New York, I moved to Florida in 1990 and spent a bunch of years there until 3/09, when I moved to Huntersville, NC. I'm happily married and have 1 child and 2 dogs.
I used to sing for an experimental band called Karmakaze, and a rockin' blues band called The Helldorados (see top friends). I was also in several other bands in South Florida over the years. I played drums for two short-lived bands; Mr. Hand, and the Big Dick Johnson Trio, and most recently was part of an instrumental musical project called Squid Viscious. I am currently on hiatus from the music business.
I'm an incredibly simple, yet extremely difficult man, who is a friggin' pain in the ass. Having said that, I'm pretty easy-going and like to be around good people that don't take things too seriously. I call it like I see it and that's pretty much me in a nutshell.
Who I'd like to meet:
Musician friends and acquaintances, wierdos, bands, artistic types and interesting people..
I would love to meet/converse with:
Steve Vai, Robert Plant, Jimmy Page, Mike Patton, Joe Satriani, Mike Portnoy, Ozzy Osbourne, Dr. Dre, Gwen Stefani, Willie Nelson, Roger Waters, David Gilmour, Michael Jordan, Derek Jeter, Don Mattingly, Joe Torre, Rudy Giuliani, Rupert Murdoch, Donald Trump, Minoru Yamasaki (original WTC designer), Christian Bale, Lorne Michaels, Mike Myers, Will Ferrell, Jack Black, Dr. Michael Baden, Dr. Robert Jarvik, others...
