I was born in Phil. Pa. ...Parents travelled around a lot... dad trying to find his forturne... he found it in Florida... I became a musician at a very early age... went on the road... learned to play alto, tenor, saprano, baritone sax, flute, clarinet, trumpet, trombone, banjo, bass guitar, drums, keyboards... learned to sing pretty good... did a lot of stand-up comedy... played night clubs and cruise ships... married some women--4 of them to be exact (probably shoulda kept at least one of them..oh well)... had some children... became a pilot... a pretty good photographer... studied a Lot of martial arts (long time ago)... got a ham radio license (KC4YXO)... learned a lot about computers... made some money here and there (in music and comedy; not computers).... blew every dime I ever made on "Cigarettes And Whisky And Wild Wild Women" (old song) ... and just partied big time all my life... (well, a lot of it)... and generally, found a way to make everything I did fun... and I still feel the same way that I always have about life... "If you can't make it fun, don't do it."
