About me:
This is my general info page.I have played drums for 30 years,with major and minor tours,recordings,videos,and have written 3 musicals for theater. I am interested in working with others in the visual/audio spectrum.I grew up as a rocker,but my personal interests were always rather global. I am available for hire as a sideman, or I can collaborate as an equal partner with open minded artists. I currently am endorsed by Kirmizigul Darbukas from Istanbul Turkey. Enough about me, tell me more about you.

hey Mike, we should catch up sometime over a beer at the pub. I might have a lowlights'cd with my drumming on it. You might get a chuckle out it. Hope it's all going great your way! Later
Hey dude. I got box seats for Rush at PNC last year. I can't handle another show there, though. The seats are just too damned small for my massive ass. That and I was sweating my balls off. The show in Vegas at the MGM Grand however, was juuuust right! I may try to see them in a different location this year and make a little trip out of it like I did with Vegas.
