This is one instrument I would like to own and play one day...
The Chapman Stick
..
This stickist is Rob Martino, playing one of the most beautiful tunes I ever heard on a Stick.
Heroes
I have so many I cannot use that tiny space to name them all. But I would surely start with my Grandfather, who was there for me all his life and taught me everything I know about it - My familly - My son, of course - But on the music side, Geddy Lee (Rush), Alain Caron (UZEB, Gino Vanelli, solo), Jack Bruce (Cream), Billy Sheehan (David Lee Roth, Mr. Big, etc.), Sting, Doug Pinnick (King's X), and many, many more.
I'm a musician living in Laval, Québec (Canada, for those who don't know). I've been playing for over 22 years now. My main instrument is the bass. I played in several cover and original bands, and many different sessions over the years. From pop, top 40, to very hard and raw metal.
I'm involved in a couple of bands ranging from Top 40 alternative rock, to pop, to blues. I also help buddy musicians for recording and/or mixing stuff. I participated in my best friend's 1st demo album which whom I had so much fun to work with. The time we wasted wasn't for the takes we screwed up on each track, but the laughter he brought in my little home studio. Fuzz is "real" and puts his body and soul into his music. One good rapper and lyricist.
Beside music and work, I try to spend as much time as possible with my son and my friends. They are my source of inspiration and are the ones who give me the opportunity to live a life that happy. They are a gift to me and I enjoy every bit of it.
In my spare time, I try to ride my motorcycle as much as I can and I'm an amateur photographer. I believe it's the best way (beside music, of course) to escape and free your mind.
The Songs
Simply...my bands.

Who I'd like to meet: My heroes... Although I had the chance to meet Doug Pinnick and his bandmates from King's X. Very cool guys. You HAVE to see them live. They kick ass!
