Are you dazed & confused by life? Do you find your existence to be overloaded with technical details you don't understand? Well this probably won't help much.

Timeless
I first heard Dire Straits wafting into our high school class from the music room downstairs. It was an "ah-ha" moment that prompted a race to Terry Atkinson's classroom to find out what this great music was. We listened to the newly released debut from beginning to end that dreary English day and I was hooked. By the 80's the band had descended into MTV fodder but re-visiting the first album shows how timeless it was.
Born & raised in England, came to the US in my 20s, liked it so much I stayed. As an Audio Engineer I've been knocking around the entertainment industry since age 16 (you figure that out). I'm the guy that actually pushes the faders up & down, not as exciting as it sounds but still beats working for a living. Married to my High School sweetheart, 2 children, 1 of each type, ages 14 & 12 (Dad, I'm 13 alright). Catholic (beer at the mother's day out) and a regular at Mass. Like to ride my scooter, longboard, fixed-gear bicycle & sometimes build vacuum tube audio gear.
