Greetings, FAWMers!

I've been playing in bands since high school - Malocchio, Atomic Bus, Do Not Resuscitate, The Code Blues Brothers, The Curbfeelers, The Retractors, January Hill, Those Guys Over There, Too Many Beepers, SutureSelf, the Porch Pirates...and more one-off bands and open mic collaborations than I could count. There's internet evidence of many of those bands in performance, which is why I'll stick with being a musician instead of a politician.

Having grown up with Classic Rock, that's my main influence, but warped by gigs as a dee-jay at pop, country and R&B stations, some really remote classical piano training and open ears. Speaking of open, let me know if you'd like to collaborate. I'm not sure if any of the collaborations from past years are still posted but we can always create new ones!

For the tech geeks (and I know you're out there), everything these days is recorded on a desktop Mac with GarageBand using a Mackie EM91CU USB mic and DI's or MIDI for everything else. Keeping it simple - although I still have a Tascam 38, a big board and fancy mics and pre's, I can get better results in less time staying "in the box". And when you're trying to do 14 songs in 29 days, who has time to rewind tape?
