THERE IS NO ANIMAL FAT OR DEAD SKUNK ROAD KILL INVOLVED. BUT YOU'LL FIND SINCERE, FERVID, FUNNY AND POIGNANT MATERIAL ONE CAN RELATE TO IN A PERSONAL AND PERHAPS OUTRAGEOUS WAY.
CONTENTS INCLUDE:
IN THE BEGINNING
THE EARLY DAYS
CULTURE AND INFLUENCES
PERFORMING VENUES

WHERE TO REHEARSE
WHEN I WAS A YOUNG LAD IN SCHOOL MY MUSIC TEACHERS IN ALEXANDRIA, MN GAVE ME AN INTEREST IN MUSIC, IT HAS STUCK WITH ME MY WHOLE LIFE. I STAYED WITH THE PLAN OF PLAYING AND TEACHING MUSIC THROUGH PUBLIC SCHOOLS AND COLLEGES. IT WAS MY CALLING CARD AND THERE WAS NO TURNING BACK. SO, KEEP THE MUSICAL RENDEZVOUS ALIVE, BUT LET THE ROOTS OF THE RHYTHM REMAIN IN PLACE. -
