Our First Gig!!

Well, there is nothing in the world like being in a band and seeing the band's name up on the Marquee for where you are going to play! My band Jet Lagged was the show case band  Thursday at Mustang's Saloon in Kingston Ontario! It is a great club and we were really excited to get out and bring our show to the town! We had a fantastic show and an even better crowd there enjoying the music and the staff of the Mustang Saloon were absolutely first class! We wanted to Thank our families for coming out and supporting us and our friends and general public who made this show a really fantastic event! I also wanted to Thank my gorgeous wife A for being the biggest fan and also doing all the photography and video work! Love you baby!

Farewell to a friend

Today I got the sad news that an amazing NCO with whom I served passed away. At first I didn't believe what I saw. Then the sad truth of the situation sunk in. My old friend was gone. Never more would he impart his wisdom on the many Soldiers and Officers with whom he served. No more jokes and no more quiet reassurances during trying times.Gene Griffin was a great Soldier, leader and friend! The world is a darker place with his passing. I wish his family peace and comfort during this most difficult time. We shall meet again someday in a far away place my friend! RIP Gene.

D-Day

68 Years ago today young men far from their homes embarked on one of the most horriffic ordeals in the history of mankind...the Invasion of France on D-Day. As a life long Soldier I am in awe of these brave heros! I can not imagine what must have run through their minds as they were crossing the English Channel. To those brave men I Thank you. I hope I am worthy of the sacrifices you made for my freedom. I have served in 2 different wars and can say that there is no glory in it. Only fear and a waste of humanity. Lets hope that one day there will be no war! The true price is paid by the Soldier who prays for peace!

The Joy of Fender

I have been a guitar player for 36 years and I can say that I never tire of playing my Fender guitars and amps! There is nothing like firing up my Fender amps and plugging in one of my favorite guitars(yes a Tele) and just getting lost in the music! Tonight I will be going to rehearsal with my band jet Lagged to prepare for our show at Mustang Saloon in Kingston Canada on June 28th. It is always such a great feeling to fall in love with your gear over and over again. There is only one thing in the world better than my Fenders and that is my wonderful wife A who totally supports my passion for music and especially Fenders!
