I play guitar, bass, piano, drums, harmonica, lead and backing vocals. Also some light janitorial. I have been known to dress up as a chicken, or some other animal, vegetable, or mineral, and stand at the roadside, or in front of irate hockey fans., and I've been in the process of recording an album that will be called "Too Windy To Juggle!" If I ever get it done, that is! I just love to play, and I've been fortunate enough to be able to make a living, and feed my wife of 15 years, and our four kids. I'm always lookin' for people to jam with.

Lyrics
While I was scopin' out the tube Some over-educated boob Comes on and tries to tell me how our great society is lubed By pointin' fingers at each other, Turnin sister against brother Blamin' someone else's mother For the way your life is screwed (Chorus) Own up! Say "I did it and I'm proud!" Or else "I made a big mistake, guess I'm the ogre in the crowd. It weren't my mother or my father, Or the things they put me through, The priest or the communion or the things they taught in school!" If natural selection Means penultimate rejection, You can't stand your own reflection, Things just haven't gone as planned, Find yourself on Jerry Springer, Don't let that feeling linger, Just point and give the finger with the same right hand! (Chorus) (Bridge) Couldn't grasp the multi- tasking, Succeptable to backwards masking, Mommy used to dress me formal, Childhood was far too normal. Too many Twinkies in my diet, Saw a show and thought I'd try it. If you think that these are lame. Try "Society's to blame!" (Chorus) A.D.D. and M.T.V. Hollywood and Tennesee Conspire to offend most every sensibility! My family was broken, Too much marijuana tokin', Pick a face out of the crowd And blame anyone but me! (Chorus) (Bridge) (Chorus)
