I've operated a professional sound company for 13 years. I've mixed, mixed, mixed, mixed, then mixed some more. Oh, and I also design and tune sound systems.
About me:
I am a drummer and have played and loved music since I can remember being alive. I used to write and sing songs while walking railroad tracks at the age of four. I have a passion for hand blown hot glass, and have worked as master glass blower. My favorite thing to do in the world is to go to live music shows and clubs, and I would spend all of my time doing that if I could. Actually, that's what I used to do: I owned a pro sound production company for 13 years, and had the good luck to work with thousands of artists. Life can be very good! Now I spend time playing with my band The Odds ( www.TheOdds.net , The Odds on MySpace ) , and going to hear music with my friends on the off nights.
Who I'd like to meet: I've already met James Brown, so I guess I can stop meeting people now ... but just in case - Bonnie Raitt, Iggy Pop, Kurt Vonnegut...
I hope you'll all make it out to my first Saturday show at Green Door in Fayetteville Saturday, Oct 18. I'll be performing solo on piano to start the show, then I'm playing drums w/The Wade Ogle Songbook, then I'll debut my new band "The Sideways Ponies" with a short set to close the night.
For all you "old-school" Fayetteville folks, I think you'll see a lot of familiar faces at this show.

Hello to all you Punkinhead fans!
Green Door show on Friday is technically sold out.
But there may be a small amount of people who can still get in. Not sure how many, and not sure when the line will start orming, and we really hate to see anyone stand in line and not get in. But that's the deal.
We strongly suggest you call George's about tickets for Saturday now. Call 479-527-6618
Here's a little something to wet your appetite.
See you this weekend!!
You've all waited so patiently. What wonderful friends.
Yes it's true, The Punkinhead Family reunion will be this Halloween 2008 at the Green Door in Fayetteville.
Just to wet your appetite, here's a little video.
Albeit a very rough recording, I believe you'll all agree...Punkinhead...is...FUNKY.
More info and more shows forthcoming.
Peace and Love...see you on Halloween. --Punkinhead
