Doing the "band thing" for the last 13 years really ate me up. Got to a point in my life where I wanted a family, and so the whole "band thing", at that point, was shoved into the back seat of my life. Married with children is exactly where I want to be, and I'm convinced of that everytime my kids jump into my arms (my wife jumps into my arms, too, by the way... one... two... three!) Anyhoo... The day job sucks, but it pays the bills, and allows me the funds to purchase and maintain the equipment I use to continue writing and recording my music, which is, let's face it... MY SANITY! Having always been blessed with an ear for the wussiest melodies, I've made my mark on the El Paso music scene with a number of bands, including The 8 o'clock Sponge, Buttergirl, The Von Traps, betsy!, and RadioReady; All the while writing and performing my brand of "loud and furious pop"! That's all I know how to write. Well, actually, that's all I know how to write well!! As I begin my thirties, I'm sure my music will change a bit, but for the most part, I want to continue writing melodies that people can sing along to. Sell out? Not until I buy my first mansion, and I don't see that happening very soon. Well, who knows? But if its all I know how to do and it makes me happy... what else matters?
