About Me

I Don't Drink, Smoke, or Do Drugs...I Play Drums!!!!

I was born July 21st, 1969 in Lorain, Ohio to a Steel Worker, and a Credit Investagator. From a young age I was subjected to hearing different styles of music in the household. My mom was a huge Elvis Presley fan who played the death out of Elvis Live at Madison Square Gardens, Conway Twitty and Loretta Lynn's Greatest hits,and Donna Fargo's Happiest Girl In U.S.A. not to mention Red Solvine Phantom 309 now mind you Country music is what it is, and I do today like a select amount of it, but my mom had these on 8 track, and they were played over, and over, and over ect.
Thank God I had a brother named Joe who had a liking for Black Sabbath, Alice Cooper, Kiss, and many more hard rocking bands of the 1970's.
Drumming for me was not a choice! it just happened. My Mom had this crystal candy dish, and we had this stereo, and record player and I found 2 pencils of equal lenth and it broke after time, and My Dad said to my Mom we better just get him lessons before he finds something new to bang on.
