am 6' 7", 265 lbs., blondish hair, blue gray hazel eyes, 1/2 Italian, the other 1/2 is a mix of Swedish, Norwegian, and German. I do have an excellent education and I am above a genius level IQ.... I am the bassist with the progressive power speed thrash band Tribunal ...I have been playing bass for 46 years, that started when my older relatives took me to see KISS when I was 6 years old and heard Gene Simmons' bass shake the floor , I knew right then and there that was what I was destined to do!!!!!....my bass sound is extremely distinctive and stands out front in the mix ,and has been known to shake the ground, crack the walls , and make plaster fall from the ceiling.... I'm NOT one of these bassists who are buried in the mix and you can't hear, I'm upfront so it pushes me to play more flawlessly every night.....in my spare time I like to hunt and target shoot , mess with computers or hang with my friends... I'm also a pretty good cook ;) ... I have a pretty good sense of humor and usually make people laugh so hard they end up on the floor :) ....I'm known for being pretty laid back and extremely loyal to my friends, as well as being an extremely fair and sincere person, my word is as good as gold !!!!!!!....as you can tell I pretty much live for my heavy metal ;) ....
