Writing, recording, and performing my music. I love to be on stage. TV and movies. Good food. Sincere, like-minded friends. Cats, dogs, people (in that order). Hard work. Satisfaction from my clients.

 I don't listen much to anything but my own. I have heard soooo much music in 49 years. For 15 years  I ran a Karaoke business  hosting over 3000 shows in and around Phoenix. Sixty five songs a night  6-7 nights a week is enough for awhile.
In order to have a unique sound  I need to sort of focus or "woodshed" on what I'm writing. As soon as I build a band and start playing out again  I'll then hear alot more local stuff. 

 Total Recall,  Fargo,  Blade Runner,  Rundown,  Walking Tall (The Rock)  Me,  Myself and Irene,  Dumb and Dumber,  A Series Of Unfortunate Events  ,

 TLC,  History,  SciFi,  Bravo,  A&E,  Comedy,

 Creating art through sound. Movies  TV,  mountain biking.,

On Life... the older you get, the better life becomes.

On Politics... it's unlikely every need will ever be met, nor every situation handled flawlessly. Remember that there are people in power that we don't see on TV. Don't blame the messenger and try to be more tolerant.

On Music... I need it like I need food & water. Fortunately, music tends to recycle every 10 years or so. I am anxious to hear what's next.

On life as a musician... when I was growing up, R&R was for the youth. Not any more. Thanks to all of the Rock senior citizens for changing the way old age will be perceived from now on. The future looks bright!
