These are just some of the many Artists that inspire me. I have been playing music ever since I was a little
kid. I can remember back in the 6th Grade when my teacher signed me up for Band, because all I did in class was drum
on the desk and tap my feet on the floor. Throughout my school years, I was involved in the school band, including; Marching
Band, Jazz Band, Pep Band, Concert Band, Stage Band, and the "Spartans" Drum and Bugle Corps, of Nashua, NH. I
got my first Drumset, 4 piece, 1976. Ludwig Classic, when I was in the 8th grade, and I got my first Guitar, from a pawn shop,
for $45.00, when I was 12 years old. It was a Fender "Jagstang", lookalike. When I turned 14, my Dad bought me a brand
new Fender "Stratocaster". I have been through 4 drumsets and 9 Guitars. My favorite Drumset was a 7 piece "Pearl" Export
Select. I had one 16inch "Avedis Zildjian" Crash, one 15inch "Paiste" projection crash, one 10inch "A Custom Zildjian"
splash, one 20inch "Sabian" Heavy Ride, 13inch "Paiste" Hi Hats, and an 18inch "Sabian" China, with a Gibralter Drum Rack,
and a DW 5000 double pedal. My Favorite Guitars, that I own, are a toss up between three; a Fender "Strat", Gibson
SG Gothic, and an Ibanez Talman, Acoustic/Electric. Anyway that's my music History. If you want to know anything
