COOL CAT (LOOKIN' for a KTTY!)
HELLO GENTLE READERS,
As some of you know, part of my life I've spent as a proffessional musician. The rest as an Archirect (music's more fun by a mile). I've even appeared on a number of CDs. I've recorded and played live with Dwight Yoakum (a childhood friend) and Jon Rodgers ( a former singer in "The Platters") as well as others. I've also recorded a CD of my own (the origin of my Laptop dancing blogs).
The above picture of me was taken during my teen years when I played in a "cover" band. I was "rockin" out to Steppenwolf's "Born to be Wild". Pretty cool cat, huh!
OK, OK, the picture is not of me!
The rest, however, is true. I just couldn't resist using the picture.

wow, i'm impressed.... dwight yoakam is one of our fav's in this house of music.... Jon is somewhat of a music junkie, and I'm glad of it, there are a lot worse things he could be hooked on, haha. we also loved him/hated him in Sling Blade, one of our favorite flicks.... his grandmother (rip) LOVED Dwight until she saw that movie, she was so funny, after her viewing of the movie she'd always say when she heard his music "I hate that son of a bitch!!!" She was a hoot!!!! it was like she thought he was really like that!!

He is! I still kid him that he didn't act-He just played himself!
He's an OK guy! We co-wrote a few songs too!
My mom is from Pikeville, KY, where he was aised. We played together as kids!
Don't be too impressed! Anybody that puts Master Yoda in drug rehab is suspect!

I like the cat. I didn't realize you were quite that established in your music. I collect records. I have around 20,000 45's and LPs. I also used to spend time organizing and promoting our local music festival. That was a blast. I can't wait to get a copy of you CD. I promise I won't send you a naked picture of myself. I'm sure you'll be immensely grateful for that.
