I love most types of music. I have the good fortune of working with several of the best bands in Michigan. There is no shortage around here of talent. My main influences for the type of music I personally write these days is Altrbridge, Tonic, 3 Doors Down, and Nicleback. When I was a kid and was learning how to play the instruments that I do my influeces were bands like Kansas, Styx and ELO. That was a LONG damn time ago. My fovorite guitarists are Steve Morse and Mark Tremonti I think. Favorite Keyboardists are Steve Walsh and Lawrence Gowan. Favorite drummers are Taylor Hawkings and Scott Phillips. Bass???? Bass was my first instrument and my favorite then and now is probably Stanley Clark.
Movies

We opened the new studio in April of 07. I am very fortunate to have such a great job. It has been a blast and are looking forward to many years of music here.

Gosh I must have listened to Blackbird for 6 months straight ...every day! Then I went back and listened to One Day Remains for the next 3 months. It was like an AB fest for almost a year. Amazing stuff!
Hi Dave! Gosh I love that old Tonic tune- forgot about that one. Don't worry- even though Creed are reuniting (for some $$$), Alter Bridge is alive and kicking. Myles will be doing some solo stuff in the mean time. YOu probably already knew that! I am psyched. Take care of the Afterparty- those guys are AWESOME! Thanks for adding my new page. Hugggz, Val
