    Hey Larry! It's fit, but maybe a little bland...haha. Here's the TL;DR - Moved east-to-west a couple times, my kids grew up and kicked us out, I still work like an animal, and I'm playing in a band with some people I met randomly one night, out for dinner with my wife. How about you?

    Hey buddy! Been a long time! You're one of the few people I've actually met in person, from here. Time...it flies while you're busy livin'.

    I played so much back then! I had a gig in November...and haven't unpacked my drums, since. I better see if I can still pull that pattern off.

    I've been in Atlanta for a few years now, but I still get out to Boise from time-to-time. I hear the weather there sucks right now...but it's great here! :)

    Opinions: Gretsch G4164SA Solid Aluminum Snare

    I'm trying to pick out a Gretsch snare to go with...a little something new that I have coming soon. :) Any thoughts on this one? Anyone have some decent recordings of one? It seems like a nice drum and by the specs, it should cover anything I need. I won't have the opportunity to try it...

    (My Band) Trikata - Corrupt Puppets

    Here's our newest effort, played at our last "Fat Wednesday" party at Fatty's Bar, in downtown Boise. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rOsD81WZ-YI Camera mic SUCKS, so there isn't much clarity. I might try lining up the audio recording I made during the show, with this video. I hadn't realized...

    The Ludwig Curse

    I hate posting negative rants about drum brands but enough is enough. I love, love, LOVE the sound of Ludwig drums...but I've finally had it. I bought this kit last year and all seemed fine. Well, not really...the bass drum arrived cracked, but Ludwig replaced it in three weeks and the new...

    They're my gorgeous fem-bots, who will help me conquer your tiny planet! We played the local "Tat2Fest" and these were the pinup models, who competed during the event. Brenda, the lovely redhead on the bottom left, won it all. She's hosting our next "Fat Wednesday" party...which ought to help...
