Influences
I grew up listening to CKLW on he radio, Motown and the pop hits of the day. The WHO was an early influence as was the Beatles. My uncle was a huge Elvis fan and I have played for an Elvis impersonator band. My first real band was a punk rock group doing late 70's and early 80's covers and we then went on to write all of our own music. I have played reggae, funk, rock, classic rock, oldies, new wave, British Invasion and love me some blues. As long as the music is good I will listen/play it. I listen to the Ramones, King Crimson, ELO, the Beatles and a wide variety of alternative bands including Primus.

EQUIPMENT
I have a rack set up with a 7 piece Tama kit, my cymbals are all Zildjian except for my Wuhan Chinese cymbals. I have a sweet ride and a rock ride, depending on what I am playing. I use Tama Speed Demon dbl pedals with a matching high hat and a Tama picalo in brass. It is a sharp looking kit and I do get a lot of compliments on it. I have some PA gear, amps monitors, mics and mixer. I also have Roto toms, congas, timbales and some electronic pads with a nice brain.
