April of 2003:  Was asked to join an original four piece metal band out of the Romeoville, IL area, "Madmortis". After approximately three weeks the band collapses due to another member losing interest.    At least this one only took a few weeks out of my life rather than over a year.    This has gotten really old and my window is closing as time moves on and I continue to get older as I weed my way through the very time consuming dishonest bullshit that seems to accompany other musicians that I have had to work with.  However just like anything else, the music industry has its good people and it has its bad people that cant get there act together or work with anyone else..  

The painstakingly long and tedious/frustrating search continues for the right band...

February 22nd 2003:  I am available for lead guitar/rhythm position. A Touch of Evil is officially over as of this morning.   How is that for the ultimate build up to be let down?  I hope that I never spend so much time in a band that goes nowhere ever again.   Listen to my sound files and contact me via email at [email protected]  I answer all of my emails so if you do not hear back from me within 48 hours it is because I did not receive it so please keep trying.

September 11th 2002:  A touch of Evil should be ready to record the debut album.  Song writing is bout half completed.  Once we have our album, we will start to play out with our product.  On a personal note I am VERY anxious to get out there onstage and play for all of you.

July 21st 2002:  A touch of Evil is holding a private viewing.    This will be the first time in history we will be playing for other people!!!  I'm sure opinions will be flying!  It will be a good time, I'm mainly looking forward to getting some opinions and feedback for the first time.

After Note:  The Private show was a tremendous success!  Everyone there had a great time and were full of compliments for the entire band and the set we played just as A Touch of Evil are likewise full of praise for our guests.  Afterwards we had a barbeque outside where Jeremy cooked up some delicious brats, hot dogs and hamburgers.  Great job workin  the grill Jeremy the food was marvelous!!!   We have to do that again sometime that was really fun!

January of 2002:  I'm asked to join A Touch of Evil.  I was first invited to play with them in early of December of  2001.  From the first note I played , there wasn't ever really any dought in my mind if I was in the band or not.   We all clicked very well together from my first practice with them.  I'm glad we finally found each other!
