What is music to you? What does it give you?

What is music two me? Hmm, Most likely the same thing it is to you, your sister, brother, mom, pop, their accountant, his garbage man...its an extension of ones self/soul. Its part of the human experience. Every one of us appreciates it and I just happen to love it and would lug two tons of gear anywhere to play a gig. Whats it give me? Well, so much. But the comradarry with musicians of the same psyche is top on the list. A little personal dirty secret of mine...I get chocked up at the end of Purple Rain every time I see it. Not because "The Kid" saw the light and said sorry to all in a song for being such a tool, nope, its because of the bands connection that instantly appears and they are as one being with one driving purpose! Sniff, gets me every time! ?

What is your music dream?

That perfect Jam with a tight pocket drummer, funky as F**K bass player, coolest of keybaordists and the most seductive of singers. Percussionists, horns and back up singers are a huge plus!

If you could change the world - what would you start with?

Probably making it against the law punishable by death to think that just because you have most of the money it means you make the rules. I'm looking at you Gates, Zuckerburg, Emperor SOROS!

Which is the most memorable song from your childhood?

Hands down, Overture into Heaven On Their Minds from JC Superstar soundtrack. Sung by Murray Head and Ian Gillam of course, not those over emotional thespians, lol. The moment I discovered that music was the shit of all shit is when I watched my older brother belting out Heaven On Their Minds into his comb as if it was a mic. 100% musical goosebumps! Rest in piece bro! We'll be seeing each other again eventually and we'll be rockin' God's kingdom ?

Who are your favorite musical artists or bands?

Phish, Umphries Magee, Deep Purple. A lots of guys I hear on Spoify
