Jeff Had an amazing weekend, great gigs and honored to be a part of the Brittany Nation Memorial Show.....Rich, you and your family are a class act my friend. Posted 3 hours ago view more
About me: Well, this primarily will be about my music, so I'll keep it centered mostly around that. I would like to mention though that I've been married for 24 years to my high school sweetheart, who supports me in all I do. I wouldn't trade her for anything. I've got two great kids, Angie and Chrystian and two grandchildren Haylee and Benjamin!
Now to the music stuff...I started playing drums around 10-11 years old. My uncle George is a drummer also and as I didn't have an older brother, I really looked up to him and still do to this day. He's my Uncle and best friend really. Well, he got me started drumming and I was hooked after that! I formed my first "real" band in Junior High School "Adrenalin" and we ended up playing in bars(Debuted at The Glass Krutch in Palmer Mass. in 1981!)...mostly biker bars on a pretty regular basis..although we had to have an adult chaperone with us all the time...we were only 15 and 16 years old back then. Those two guys, Pete and Joe are still my closest friends and I consider them family. I met my wife during that time as well (at a non alcohol kids bar!) Well, as things happen, the band broke up and I went on to play in many more bands...too many to mention all of them but I'll try....Comand, Mass Attack, Time Machine, Sons of Vengance, Nightwing, Jonah Hex, Paladin and the list goes on..played almost every one of them with who I still consider the best bass player I've ever played with...Pete Garvey...my best friend and more of a brother to me than anyone else...and the one guy I've gotten into more trouble with than I care to remember (we could write a book!) My first venture once relocating to Florida was playing the blues, when I spent 3 years with The Backwater Blues Band, touring throughout this great state playing blues clubs and opening large shows and fesitvals for national recording acts such as LeAnn Womack, and Dr. John to name a few. While I wasn't really feeling the blues much at the end...I truly love those guys and they are still some of the nicest and most talented group of musicians I've ever played with. I've also filled the drum chair for local blues acts as well as fill-in work with "Thunderstruck" one of Florida's premier AC/DC Tribute acts. I also spent two years with local rockers 4Play with my good friend Larry Lafalce (formerly with Mercury Records artists BullAngus)and spent a year with the classic rock cover band "Blind Rage", "Lavafish" (featuring some true legends of classic rock) and was honored to be a part of the formation of "The Lindsay Taylor Band". My current projects include the band "Stage Hangar 4", we're a modern to classic rock cover/original band featuring some of the best musicians in Florida and Thrash Jazz, a kick ass mostly original hard rock/alternative/metal band, currently working on our 4th Studio release. These are both great projects, Add them as your friends! I gig all over Florida, so keep checking back for show dates. God Bless everyone and we'll see you out there! Jeff
Who I'd like to meet: My Father...he died when I was only 4 months old...
Other than that...Buddy Rich, Gene Krupa,Ronnie Van Zandt, Keith Moon, John Bonham, Mitch Mitchell, Ian Paice, Sandy Nelson, Richie Morales, Mike Portnoy, Neil Peart and most important of all...Jesus...if I get to meet him, then I know I lived right....and was forgiven.
BLIND RAGE ..
£leTriKa sounds completely different from any Metal band you have ever heard. The Brazilian rhythms and the Portuguese language added to the songs makes its style unique, giving birth to a new kind of Metal. If you are really looking for something new about Metal, you should check £leTriKa out!
Hugs from Brazil, Claudio David
