When I grow up I want to be:
I don’t ever want to “grow up” though middle-aged, I realize I am growing older but, as I do that, I hope to influence as many people as possible to love music and play an instrument as others have done to me

Goal for year 2008:
Sharpen and polish my performance/singing/songwriting abilities, finish writing the original songs in my head, learn covers to pay tribute to my heroes, get set list together and play some gigs either solo acoustic or with band and play lots of gigs
