Back in the day, I was a guitar picker with the bands Legend and Shadow Facts before I started a career in radio. I have developed a pretty serious knowledge of classic rock over the past 30 plus years--people call me the local Rock God. I miss the days when the most important things in my pocket were the keys to my Chevy Impala and a beer koozie for wherever I was headed. When I'm not talking about music, picking guitar for fun with the band Jam Castle, or chilling at Bike Night, I'm hanging out with the wifey and dog.

More Snow Slow Down
The snow we are getting today is on top of rain that is now frozen. I am not sure what could be so important that people can't slow down a little when the roads are like they are. But if it's a funeral it won't matter if you are a little late...

Well I have told you Jam Castle stories and there are many more still to come. But this is a song written and sung by the other guitar player in the Legend Band. His name is Dinny Rose and as the Jam Castle stories tell this is the guy who grew up three houses from me...
Little Dog’s Gotta Go Too
When you get as much snow as we have lately and you got a little dog you get to shovel more than the walk. This is what my yard looks like as I have a little dog and so does Soundman Pat. I often wonder if my neighbors think I am crazy shoveling the yard...
Just Slow Down
Yup this is a picture of a road in Billings. With the snow that we have had all I can say is just slow down when you are driving! You might just save yourself some insurance money as well as a major headache!
