I started playing drums in the fifth grade In Bloomington, Indiana, taking private lessons and playing in school bands for 5 years. I then began playing and recording in local bands for the next 13 years in Bloomington through out High School, College, and beyond. I recorded with Dragstrip, and released a CD in 1994 on Shredder Records titled “Reaction Time”. In 1998, I moved to San Francisco and resumed my musical education by studying drum set with Robert Danielson, former drummer for Beach Blanket Babylon. I have also continued to play and record with area bands. I have played with the City College Big Band and I played drums on demo CD recordings for San Francisco based bands, Lessick’s Kid and Bug. I was employed as the drummer for the musical “With Relish”, by Morris Bobrow in 2004. I currently play in a band called Bug with MFT member Hans Winold. I married my wife Caroline in 2005. We have three sons; a 11 year old, a 2 year old, and a 10 month old.
What bands are you or have you been in?
Peace Dykes, Go Mango, Dragstrip, Snuff Queen, Lessick's Kid, The SinThetics, Chum, Bug
Good to hear from you!! What are you up to these days? It has been so long and I havve been so out of touch. I never intended for it to happen like that, life just led me down a path I had no idea was coming my way.
Thomas...ive started uploading pictures onto this site,i will put so many on a night & then claire will load her batch she wanted too use that were not the same as mine...so keep checking back my hot wing friend.
Hey Thomas,thanx for having me & Claire on board around your house...you family is great. You can find Claire in my friends list & by no later than this time next week i should have our Frisco trip pictures posted.
Thomas! Long time. Late eighties? Something like that. I just saw your Mom a few years ago; my sister Ellen is back in Bloomington with her son Nathaniel, and Tonia came over with bagels. We had a nice time. Nice looking family you have there, congratulations.
I'm great! Your family is really beautiful, but that doesn't surprise me cause your beautiful! (inside and out) I'm still livin in B-town, well actually I just moved back, and I'm preparing to go back to FL. Next Jan/Feb. (can't wait for that!) and I'm just hangin out working and raising my 3 sons.
Hey Man! Nice lookin' buncha rugrats you got there. I've got a daughter myself, guess I should get some pics up of her but I always figure people will check the myspace if they're really interested. Still in SF eh? haven't made it back yet but I figure it'll still be there. Was gonna hit the States this last Summer but the planets never aligned... At this point I might as well make it an even decade.
Haven't updated that website in 5 years or so but it gives the feel... I may have matured but the bar sure hasn't. Love to you and yours.
OMG, I had totally forgotten. I looked at your pics. Your family is gorgeous! Nice work! I remember you as one of the nicest guys I ever knew. I am sure you are still the same. Nice to hear from you.
Low Point: Going with members of Jot to set up a show(?) / talk to Bill Levin. I'll never forget it because of how wasted Bill seemed to be and he ended up whipping his penis out while we were talking.
High Point: Seeing Cody Chesnutt play there.
