Hello!
Love to go_trying to rearrange my schedule...will probably have to be a little late. What time do you perform? Also, not sure if you know but Patrick Smith is back in Chicago—I could see if he could go if you want...

No, I am not THAT Robert Smith so let's get that out of the way. I am an ex-Hoosier now proud Chicagoean. Went to Purdue but know the Muncie "No Bar" crowd & some of the Bloomington folks from that era. I still play music in original bands despite 2 kids (5 yr-old girl & 3-mth old boy). Still record in my basement—just much more sophisticated now than the old 4 track days... Do advertising to pay the bills.
What bands are you or have you been in?
The List:
Split Infinity (Indy-H.S.)
The Singles (Muncie)
Snake, Baby (W.Laf.)
Girls Can Touch (W. Laf.)
King Spill (Chicago)
Snake Oil (Chicago)
The Sunspots (Chicago)
Veipa Cray (Chicago)
I am in Atlanta nad have been since about 1989. My life is great, wife four kids. I have been working out alot lately as you can see form my photo. People often tell me I resemble Brad Pitt. I don't see the resemblance.
I meant to tell you much earlier that the photo of Sigrid and Gunnar from Christmas was adorable...strong work and my (our) best to Robin. Looking to be in Chicago in June. More later.
I look the same? Ha! That's just my strategic use of soft-focus to keep me looking young...
Good to see & hear from you. Congrats on the kiddos, bet you're having fun with them. Connor is 13 and Maille is 11 now...I'm going to blink and they're going to be gone. Can't believe how quickly it goes.
Hopefully the next time I wander through Chicago we can get caught up (and if the stars align correctly, Patrick will actually be in town instead of some foreign country).
I live on Lake Shore Drive (btwn North and Division). Am back in the office on Monday and will check my calendar to set a date to meet up!
Happy New Year!
I'm down to a DOD Flashback Fuzz, a Rat, a Maxon overdrive (generic Tube Screamer, used for a clean boost) a Boss 6 band footswitch EQ, and a Morley volume pedal. I sure would like to have a Memory Man.
Here is a list of all the digital recordings I have made. Some of these are on MFT, but most are not. Half of them haven't even been mixed. If you are a band and would like nice, mixed copies of any of your shows, please let me know.
