Tell me about your history? How did you get where you are now?
I've played in originals bands almost exclusively; for quite some time. None of them are currently presented here, as I should ask the other members first.
NEW: See www.soundclick.com/ironwill as an example of a progressive power-trio.
Have you performed live in front of an audience? Any special memories?
I play live within band situations; (see www.soundclick.com/ironwill as one band example.)
Your musical influences
Artists who've influenced me are King Crimson, Yes, early Genesis, Focus, ELP, Rush and classical composers such as Tchaikovsky, Chopin and Rachmaninoff.
What equipment do you use?
Mac computers, Logic Audio, assorted softsynths, an old Yamaha digital piano, Ludwig drums, Zildjian cymbals and lots of other percussives. Favorite mics would be AKG and AudioTechnica condensers, and EV dynamics.
