J-Rock

 

 

1. How did you hook up with King of Clubs?
 I have known Paul Shannon for a number of years & we always got along. When he mentioned that he wanted to get a band going, I said "yea, I'm in, let's do it"!
 
2. What do you like about being in this band?
The new line-up in this band is off the hook! We have alot of fun playing together, we can be critical of each other without someone getting pissed and we respect each other's opinions and abilities.
 
3. What do you do when King of clubs is not rockin'?
I work too much, I spend time with my family and most summer weekends I can be found on the lake up north out on the pontoon boat or jetski.
 
4. Who are your influences/ favorite musicians?
Shannon Larkin from Godsmack, Carter Beauford with Dave Mathews band and Danny Carey from Tool.
 
5. What are some of the bands you dig?
I listen to a wide variety of music. I find that a portion of the music in just about every genre
is good
 
6. How did you get started in music?
I started playing trumpet in 5th grade, but I just was not into it. I started playing the drums in 6th grade, was in all the band possible through school and took private lessons.
 
7. What was the coolest show or venue you've ever played?
I played at opening day at Miller Park a few years ago. The only problem was, it was so cold out that day that we froze our butts off. Also, a show at Hal's Harley Davidson during the Harley 100th
anniversary was awesome. The stage was huge and I had the most killer drum monitor mix that I have ever heard
