I have been playing the drums since I can't even remember! I started out on those Mickey Mouse kits that you would get for X-Mas, destroy it in about 30 minutes and wait patiently for the next X-Mas so I could do it all over again! In between holidays I would bang on ice cream buckets and anything else I could find. I am a classically trained musician with a metal streak running through my veins.

My biggest influences include:

Neil Peart-Rush (If God played drums, he would try to be like Neil!) Mike Portnoy-Dream Theater Dave Lombardo-Slayer Nicko McBrain-Iron Maiden Danny Carey-Tool The Rev-Avenged Sevenfold Joey Jordison-Slipknot Former band(s) include: Insanelane

On stage you will be seeing a 9 piece monster.

My drums of choice are, and always will be Sonor, except for the Pearl Joey Jordison Signature Snare that is simply devastating!
Ear shattering highs and exotic colors provided by Paiste Cymbals
Evans & Remo Drum Heads make my Sonor's sing
Pro Mark 747 Japanese White Oak Drum Sticks are my preferred tools to hammer with
Drum Workshop 5000 Accelerator Kick Pedals bring the thunder and fury to the bottom end
A Pearl Drum Rack holds it all together
Tama Cymbal Holders keep my Paiste's rock solid
Roc-n-Soc Drum Throne keeps my ass comfy all night
AKG & Sennheiser Microphones bring the power to you, but do I really need em? Most would say NO!
I exclusively use Latin Percussion Cowbells (We need more Cowbell, and an endorsement deal, this shit is expensive!!) Hold on a second, we need a song that actually has cowbell in it! God Damn It!!!!

So, here's to makin your ears bleed, gettin' drunk, and watchin' the hotties dance all nite long!!
