| Plum Crazy |
DOB: June 21, 1963
Daytime Job: Supervisor at RR Donnelley
Years Playing: 39+
Former Bands: Blue Diamond, Statz,
Stargazer, and Tangent
Favorite Bands: Led Zeppelin,
Aerosmith, Yes, Genesis, Journey,
Boston, Kansas, Three Doors Down,
Jeff Beck, Chickenfoot, and the list
continues to grow……
Background: I grew up in the Scranton,
PA area and moved to Bloomsburg in
1997. Started playing drums at the age
of 7 – (my first real set), before that I
was always banging on pots and pans,
tables and anything else that made
noise. Joined my first band when I was
in 5th grade. We played a few dances, a
local carnival and a benefit for the public
library. From the first time I was on
stage, I knew that music would be a
major part of my life. In school I played
in marching and concert band while
performing in rock bands at night. I
stopped performing live for the past 25
years, but have always had a drum kit in
my home and kept up with my playing. I
recently decided it was time to once
again get back to performing with a
band and had the opportunity to
audition for Plum Crazy. As you can tell,
I passed the audition and we have been
working on tightening up our
performances and adding new music. It’
s great to be playing for an audience
again and I want to thank John, Darryl,
and Shirley for adding me to the line-up.
Influences: If you keep your eyes and
ears open, you will come to realize that
you can get inspiration and meaning
from each and every person you meet
and every situation you are involved in,
all you need to do is look for it.
Greatest Moments: The days that my
daughters and grand daughter were
born. I have recently been able to build
a closer relationship with my girls and
come to understand just how important
relationships are in my life.
Comments: It has been great being
back on stage and performing again. I
have met a lot of very nice people in the
establishments that we have played so
far and look forward to meeting new
friends as we continue to build our
following – see you at the show!!!
