|
| Fender Stratocaster | 11/19/2003
|
Upon submission recieved a Fender Stratocaster for entering material into the Discmakers Independent Music World Series. Based more on luck than recognition as it was an award in a lottery type of category. [But Hey, $25.00 in and a Fender Strat out is not a bad return.]

Hole in the Wall Studios = HIT WALL - South San Francisco, California The United Immigrant
|
| Business Associate | 3/20/2005 to 10/1/2005
|
Jammed it out hardcore for six glorious months in an attempt to lure bandmates and get the future elite sound out to the public. It never materialized, but a lot of experience was attained through practice, practice, practice. A Life's Dream is not worth Spoken if you never gave it Flight from where it had Awoken. The Best and Worst of Desire. A Heart Gained.
For future events... "This footprint will remain."

Played some good music. Lacked in concentration and guidance. Members got lost, got sick and then persued the psyhie of, "It's Not My Fault."

OPEN SUNDAE (Y) - Santa Clara, CA. USA
|
| Rhythm Guitarist | 11/15/2004 to 9/8/2005
|
Open Sundae produced some great singles and had the opportunity to be something fantastic. But due to the band's self doubt and a member's cold call left the band scratching their heads trying to figure out what was going on. The other lead member's decided to shut the project down.
The drummer had great Top 40 type style, the lead guitarist brought great twists and the lead singer provided the garnish. Noateable songs: "I'VE GOT SOMETHING TO SAY" "HOW FAR WOULD YOU GO?" other songs were covers.

The Geo Bomb - Oakland, Tracy, Pleasanton, California The United Fakes
|
| Co-Collaborator | 7/29/2004 to 10/15/2004
|
A Crash and Burn Project where the other members were full fledged wanna -be's that will never be. Upon further speculation, they were drug addicts with a distaste for common sense and well being. Short Circuiting seemed more inclined of how they work. Good Riddance.
Bottomline: "Waste of Time"
Nothing got accomplished. Just a lot of talk, talk, talk. Lots of mouth movement with no action. In other words, BULLSHIT.
If they talk a good game... Remember, B--------!

Sound Wave Studios - Oakland, California The United Debates
|
| Business Associate | 3/1/2004 to 9/1/2004
|
Honed the Craft of the Maker through Practice and Dedication. Variable ingenius attitudes and influences were generated from this tenure. Much criticism brought on by self and diligently exhibiting self approval through trial and error. Also this writer believes that Green Day developed American Idiot one floor below as certain nuances were apparent one afternoon when familiar G.D. sounds were penetrating through the floor. Coincidence? Possibly, the world will never know.

! ! ! INCOMING ! ! ! - Oakland, CA. USA
|
| Guitarist and part time drummer | 2/1/2003 to 11/15/2003
|
Indie/ Punk Rock band with a mixture of nominal talent that almost had all the pieces yet unfortunate events brought it's inception to it's demise. A very boisterous and strong willed Russian Lady by the name of Sandra brought a strong presence to the lead role of this ensemble.
Noteable hits were derived from this experience such as: "EXTREME LIKE" "BEAUTIFUL CRACKHEAD" "OAKLAND MURDER 91 & 93" "HELP & ASSIST" "YOU USED TO LOOK LIKE VENUS DE MILO" - If only this conquest can be realized.
