I was born and raised, January 5th, 1954, in New London, CT, USA.
It was a Navy town.
I loved living by the water. Great place to be in the winter also.
Like a fool I did not finish high school due to an injury to My knee and the school not wanting
to advance Me the year I went back. But, I did get My GED once I entered the military.
Entering the military in 1972, I am a veteran with seven (7) years active duty and seven (7) years National Guard time, in both the Air Force and Army.
Upon leaving the active military I moved to Lima, OH with My second wife, where I worked and attended college full-time.
I am divorced (x2) with five children, three (3) girls and two (2) boys. (All adults now) I have four (4) grand-children and one step grand-child, four (4) girls and one (1) boy.
I have an Associates of Applied Science Degree, (Emergency Medical Technology Paramedic).
Prior to being laid off I worked as an office manager and chef/cook here in the Cincinnati area.
My love for music started early. I grew up listening to doo-wop, country and rhythm and blues. Because of where I grew up I was drawn to rhythm and blues. (Motown and the Philly soul sounds) But I never lost sight of what music was really about. To me it was a way for people to express feeling. No matter what their genre may be. And yes, to me it does include today's rap and hip-hop genre. And just so you know My mom got me to listen to polka music too. Wouldn't let her know it then but I did like it. (Hey!!! What kid tells their parents they like their choice in music. (lol))
So how did I come to tribal??? Well it was on a dare actually. I was in a chat room where I am a host and was turned on to Tribal then. A few of us liked talking music and classics of all types. Hell we even sang tunes posting them in the room as we talked. A few people listened to My voice clip and said I should try out for Tribal. Truthfully I didnt think I had a chance and thought they had enough DJ's. I slipped into Tribal anyway and asked the procedure to apply. Things went on from there and...
Look at where I am now.
