Bass - Keyboards - Percussion
When I first met Al I played drums (kinda) and not keyboards. But I wasn't very good on drums. When I started playing with Al, Paul and Gary I switched to piano. I wasn't very good but then we were all new to our instruments except for Paul who had played drums for a while. We did some fun stuff as The Lost Cause. That lasted a couple of years.
I had also started playing solo piano gigs at hotel brunches and as general back ground music in stores and so on. We split for a while when Al was at BGSU and I played in a country band that specialized in Moody Blues songs. Al eventually joined that band for a while but then we lost contact again.
I started playing with a band called Lost Marble Collection and then with Milo's Invention, which was a lot of the same people from LMC. I then met up with Nick and Al again and we started playing together. Then known as The Mirrors we tried to play mostly original music but you know how far that goes.
We then changed our name after we were informed of another band called The Mirrors from the Cleveland area which had existed in the 70's or something and our using that name seemed to offend some of their fans. Since then we've played many sweet gigs, many suck ass ones but have managed to have a damn good time doing it. And I would hope that we could be recording something soon with Jay.
And my illustrious solo/side interest endeavors include: still playing in a restaurant (dinner music now); accompanying etc. for various High School and community theaters; playing in a couple different bar bands; a jazz/swing band, playing weddings and private parties. And I'm also in a little band from Logan called Three Chords and a Beer. This is a blast. They need a whole bio of their own. It is a really cool story and I get to jam with my wife Kathryn who by the way has an incredible voice.
