Click the guitar to hear a clip of me playing "House of the Rising Sun." It's about 60 seconds long, so give it a little time to load.

One of the first things I ever loved...making music. Often, people visiting my home on weekends can find me and several other guys in a lighthearted jam session. The living room resembles a recording studio; a drum set in front of the picture window, guitars, amps, microphones, and wires everywhere. "Watch your step!" is yelled countless times over the music. It was easier when I lived in the country; we could play as loud and as late as we wanted. But we've lived inside the city limits for nearly a year now and on one has had any complaints so far.

The music I play is the same music I enjoy listening to: heavy metal, hard rock, and classic rock. My favorite band of all time is Tesla. I also used to play drums with the guys from Slaughter before they hit it big. Other music I enjoy listening to includes Godsmack, Metallica, AC/DC, Ozzy, and Iron Maiden, among countless other bands and artists. See my links page for sites about these bands.
