My Sandbox.... - General Information

Social Networking...what a concept! I get to stay up until 4 or 5 am "doing stuff" to extend my ever-reeking cyberstench. I've got a MySpace, I've got a Facebook. I've got a YouTube, There's a Creative Commons Page. 

ALso, I was voted "Member of the year 2007" by http://drumsmylife.com, a website that is 7200+ members strong at the time of this writing. Yeah, I get it.

One thing I like about all of this hoopla is that enables me to connect with people to the point that I can transcend the need for "mainstream press". I am not "Flavor of the Month" material. Rather, I am an incredibly active denizen of not only the stage of the local choke & puke but also a very highly-evolved netizen that is patched in to many areas. 

I gave up on getting into drum magazines a long time ago. I suppose they don't notice me because I don't have a bone through my head, I don't have a hit record, I don't look like I just fell out of an inkpress.

However, I've played on over 100 albums, won a grammy award, am at the forefront of an internet music revolution, and I just turned 40 and still ride a skateboard. Meh... It's not like I don't have a story to tell. I toured with the guy who started Rock-n-Roll...what more do you want? 

It's comical at this point to me. I guess I expect too much from what a career is supposed to give, seeing that I don't make a boatload of cash doing this. Really, I do it for the shits & grins.

Hi. Glad you found this small bracket of my world on the internet. It's mostly about drums but there's also the more personal side of me that comes out here. This site doubles as my blog of sorts. Maybe I'll make you laugh, maybe I'll piss you off. It's all good! Just keep reading!

So You're probably wondering "Who is this guy"? Well, I'ma tell you what I'm all about in a very short narrative.

I've played drums as far back as memory would allow. There's pics of me playing when I was 1 year old. My first kit was a 1964 Ludwig Joe Morello model (13", 16", 22" 14 snare) which I still have.
