Got to have sound. Started piano very young, then trumpet, baritone, violin, and finally into my favorite and most passionate drums at age 12. Picked up guitar and eventually bass as a teenager. But playing loud music was a necessity and it started with a pair of 6x9 speaker cabinets for my car built in the Staples High School woodshop after school. Then that passion turned into 4 years as a professional car stereo installer before I was 20. Now in my 50’s and have various pieces of equipment and just completed a pair of Brutes and I am looking to share my experience.
