I remember spending 2005 to 2012 at Wells Fargo Bank. I sat on a phone helping customers every day. Made some friends and had 3 different jobs there. Prior to Wells Fargo I was a Guitar Teacher. Life pulls you in different directions. I took a leap of faith and quit my job. Its been quite an adventure. After sitting in a chair 8 hours per day, I craved sunshine, swimming in lakes, bicycling all night underneath the stars, playing music whenever I felt creative vibes to do so. It was a trade off. Give up that regular paycheck to see the world. Honestly, I had moments that were like Into the Wild. I played a casino and these friendly Native Americans took me back to the reservation. They told me they thought I was a resurrected NA warrior. They felt a spiritual connection to me when they heard me playing music. I remember them taking me to a sacred lake where they did ceremonies. They told me to go swim by myself. So I did. I walked out on these super hard rocks and immersed myself. They took me to a prayer tree as well. I remember swimming across Lake Nokomis last summer. I looked up at the sky and just was mesmerized by the clouds. I would bicycle from Shoreview to Lake Calhoun almost every day. I lived off nothing. It was a trip. I remember losing weight and not even taking my asthma inhalers anymore. People have helped me along this path. I could go on and on...Soul Searching in Memphis..ing back to Minnesota... teaching a handful of people...at a crossroads...lots of options...different directions...I do crave to see the world...California, Costa Rica...wherever the Angels guide me.. I can tell you I learned more about prayer over this journey..playing Crazy Train with former members of Whitesnake, Ozzy Osbourne, and Anthrax..out in Pennsylvania.. Im ready to do a normal life again... but what is normal? Who knows.. thanks to all the cool bands I got to play with.. Stereo Pirates, Waves Collide, Hollywood Blvd, Blind Pigs... now I get to dabble in a Tribute to The Cure...Karma Boomerang...Some say pick one thing but thats not how my life worked out... Here is to wearing my heart on a sleeve...so much to say...so little room on Facebook
