About me: Music is life. The ocean is life. Rythm surrounds us. Embrace life with a smile. The universe will provide us with what is in accordance with the laws of nature. Take some risks. Pay some dues. Be patient. Smile as frequently as possible. Be cool. Study things you wish to improve on. LIVE EACH DAY TO THE FULLEST!!!!!

What up Rymo?? I havent talked to you in awhile and thought I'd roll by your page and say hello! Our 16 year old went to the Pepper show last night and said you were bangin on the skin's with the boy's from Kona and that made me think, I need to hit ya up and say what's up. Hopefully you and M are enjoying your break! Carla and I look forward to getting together with you guy's soon, hopefully before your Summer tour? Paz, Todd.
