To make a VERY long story relatively short...I went thru my rebellious teen-age faze, went to war with my parents and the law..Dropped out of high school on the condition that I get a full-time job and get my G.E.D.{which I did} Worked a dead-end job for 7 years while I honed my musical skills...Hooked up with a couple of local music veterans who saw my potential, and started playing out full time. Quit the dead-end day job after we'd been playing out 6 nights a week for a year, and had become one of the most popular bands in the city... The band leader had a serious drug/alchohol problem, and the band broke up, but by that time I had enough loyal supporters of my own to go solo, so I did, and 20 years later, I'm still at it...God Bless America!!!!
