I ENJOY...BEING ON STAGE...ER HELLO LET'S FACE IT- I'M ADDICTED TO THE STAGE!
FISHING...caught a 6lbs. muskee when I was a kid and was hooked (pardon the pun!), GOLF(although I'm not that good...yet)We have an awesome DOJO in our house and I kick "BOB'S" ass all the time! Bob's brother was seen in MISS CONGENEALITY at the beginning of the movie, Sandra Bullock was kickin' his ass!(he's a dummy)I love to jet ski, toss the ball around, I like a good ol romp in the hay, skinny dipping, climbin' tree's, climbin' trails, cruisin' topless in my miata with my dog...Rebel Princess... well the car is topless anyway... oh and I also like flashing truckers... what the heck! But number 1 love is performing on stage writing new songs and learning new songs that give me goose bumps that other people write... I'm always lookin' for new songs and co-writes! I'm co-authoring a book right now... and that's fun.... but if you want me to do "girly things like sit down and knit or crochet... ummmm that's not me... but if you listen to my song THAT'S STILL ME then... you will know exactly who I am! Oh and I love movies! I also do voice overs and have a link here... so you can hear me and hire me! Take care...n rock on!

Who I'd like to meet: TRUE STORY...By the age of 9 my family had traveled on vacations to all of the 50 states in the USA except HAWAII and the NORTHWEST I still have yet to go to HAWAII, but I ended up living in Seattle and traveling to all the other Northwest States! I'll get to HAWAII soon and my 3 year stint in the Army gave me the freedom to travel around Europe a little...but according to this map...whoa- I have a lot more ground to cover and friends to meet! Get a map...it's fun!
FRIENDS,FRIENDS N MORE FRIENDS!
When I was growing up we had a sign on our wall as you head up the stairs from the back door(no one uses the front door in the country) anyhoo...we had a sign that hung over where "Tinkerbell" our family poodle terrier slept,which was right at the top of the stairs so everyone could see that read..."THERE ARE NO STRANGERS HERE...ONLY FRIENDS WE HAVE NOT MET YET!" and that is how I have always lead my life! Yeah Mom! Thanx for making me,me!

Hi KK RYDER-Ezy Ryders addicted to the STAGE, Heaven & Earth is on hiatus now as Stuart Smith and Richie Onori have joined forces with bassist Steve Priest to reform "Sweet". For those of you unfamiliar with the band, Sweet originally formed in the early 70s and went on to sell over 40,000,000 albums with 11 International Top Ten Hits such as "Ballroom Blitz", "Little Willy", "Love is Like Oxygen", "Fox on the Run", "Teenage Rampage", "Action", "Blockbuster", "Hellraiser" and many others.
This reincarnation of the band reformed last year, playing their first show in June, and went on to play festivals throughout Canada and the States and had played to over 300,000 people before the year was out. During this tour last year they recorded a live CD available on Amazon entitled "Sweet, Live in America" which has received rave reviews - pick up a copy and please Add Sweet As Your Friend On Myspace!
