| Introducing
|
Did
a fire walk in Cape Conway Airlie Beach Whitsundays three years ago (2000)
and when i finished i had rhythm! thanks to a great friends of mine called
Zach and Zoe. The venue was Dr Chris's Castle. In the firewalk you get
the opportunity to get rid of things in your life and ask for new things.
The rhythm was gifted to me and i have been a drummer ever since! Done
some playing and busking and i cant get enough of it!. |
| Description
of music |
Jungle
Trance. When i drum i talk to the light. I love to dance so i close my
eyes and dance with my hands, tickle the leather and feel the pleasure.
I love to play to dance music but more than anything i love playing with
others live - the more the merrier!

| Who/What
have been your main musical influences ? |
My
early influences were Jerry Rafferty - Baker Street, Bob Dylan, Neil Young,
America and then there's Queen. I loved "I want to break free"
That got me through my teenage years. When Freddy Merucury came out in
a Tutu with a Vacuum Cleaner - blew me away to the point of not really
caring about what people think. Knowing that you are good. |
| Your
greatest musical moment? |
Started
a Blues Club on the Waiheke Ferry - The Baroona. 107 foot long and 100
years old. I was organising, promoting the music - doing everythng but
playing. Then i was asked by the Muso's to join in so i jumped in with
a guy playing a 3 stringed guitar with a broken neck, another guy playing
a pig skin over a pot plant and a broken old cymbol. It was awesome -
i started singing the history of the ship and it all went from there...
it sling shotted me into it. |
| Your
musical dream? |
To
change the attitude of the world, share a little bit of light and love
with everybody. Spent 40 years trying to make a buck - the next 40 is
trying to change the world. Music is the great way to distribute love's
message - Musicians should be politicians.
|
| Your
best recent listen? |
Sunday
at Karen's place. A Sunday of original music, original people - we need
a bigger venue! We had a whole lot of musical politicians there sharing
their original music. Second best listen - the 3rd Tuesday of the month
at Music Club.
