I ENJOY PARTICIPATING IN THE FOLLOWING LEGAL ACTIVITIES: Anything outside, on the water, beach or in the sky!

WHAT'S YOUR “THEORY” ON MUSIC?: Music sooths the savage beast, and guess what? We’re ALL beasts!
BEST CONCERTS I HAVE ATTENDED: (WHO, WHEN, WHERE): Eric Clapton, August 29th 1990 ,Sandstone Amphitheatre in Kansas City. It was 2 days after Stevie Ray Vaughn’s helicopter crash in Wisconsin, I was filling in for “Fredrocks” on KY-102 in KC. We had been waiting for word on the concert cancelation because of the tragedy that had happened to Stevie & Clapton's agent Nigel Browne, his bodyguard Colin Smythe, one of his tour managers. The show went on, and the only reference the Clapton made was a :45 second riff of “Pride & Joy” followed by “Wonderful Tonight”, I have never seen 18,000 people overcome with emotional, until that night.
There was a guy in the front row obviously moved by the events had a picture of Stevie on his baseball cap, from what I understand after the show, Clapton invited him backstage and presented him with one of his guitars. Lucky Bastard!
