I have been playing for 23 years, and I am from New York, Not the City, and I moved down here last October and am tired of PLAYING WITH MYSELF. I have played in many different styles of bands. I like a challenge, and don't want to just be a drum machine, I wont do that anymore, people have told me it looked like I was falling asleep up there, and one time I actually did, still kept playing though. Don't get me wrong don't think I'm the best ever or anything, it's just that I don't want to play tedious rehashed music. I am a big Metal fan, and am getting back into the fusion, ska type of stuff. I have a studio in Pittsburgh, on Arlington Ave. it's small but it will do and I can practice there when ever.
