A couple of years ago I decided that I wasn't getting any younger, and that since playing music fed my soul I needed to focus on doing that. In 2010 I made it a priority and played 50+ gigs, many of them with the nursing home collective. Toward the end of 2010 I finally put together my own band with a keyboardist friend and we started playing anywhere/anytime we could. So far in 2011 I'm at over 100 gigs and we're pushing hard to play more festivals and shows in 2012. I've gotten to know a couple of bass makers and have good relationships with them. I've also put some feelers out with other brands that I use and now have a proper endorsement deal with FEA Labs Effects. It is nice to get some recognition for the hard work, and also is great to be able to endorse a product with no reservations - they make the best compressors I've ever used.

Now if I can just talk Jason at Fodera into a deal
