Toured Nth NZ both on our own and fronted the Exponents, Jan Hellriegel, Pumpkinhead, Annie Crummer, Jungle Fungus...
Performed at Mountain Rock the last year that Joe Satriani played.
I"m a bit rusty on the saxophones, currently getting back up to speed with them. I'm a Song Writer, Lyricist and I write original songs as well as poetry etc... (isn't most music poetic in some form or other).
