What I'm listening to nowadays: I'm a classics guy, but to be honest, I don't listen to music all that much. It's like a guy that works at a doughnut shop all day going home and eating doughnuts. He still loves doughnuts, but he's probably not gonna have them for dinner.
Coolest thing I've done: Oh, I've done some pretty cool shit, but I'd have to say skydiving with my brother who was dying of cancer has to top the list. 15,000 ft. I shit my pants. He laughed. Good times.
Most embarrassing moment: Jesus, where to start? I'm a walking embarrassment! Let's just say that I have learned alot thru the years by keeping my mouth shut. Never miss the opportunity to shut the fu#k up!
Bad Habits: None. I gave them all up. I've been sober for 15 months, smoking 8 years ago, I eat right and exercise. I'm a goody two shoes!
What was your first concert ever: Kiss and Queensryche at tge Kentucky convention center. GREAT show.
If you could meet a Rockstar ( past or present ), who would it be, and why: Muhammad Ali, because he was the truth.
Who do you love: Me, now that I can see life correctly (sober,) and that allows me to love others stronger and have more respect for others and life in general. I love my family so much, and my friends are second ti none! You should always be thankful, humble and kind. God bless.
