Question for ya. Of course I'm another audio guy out there lookin' for work. I'm on the industry book, but the only group I can't get into is the gig available, is that cause the moderator hasn't been on there in so long that I haven't been added? It looks like no one has been on there in a while. Is the mysterious economy plague killing roadies? ahhhh! Anyhoo, looks like you've had a pretty cool career thus far, keep doin' it to it, and maybe we'll run into each other some day. peace!
Hey Misty.. Wanted to drop a line and say "Elloe!" I'm available for any of your Audio or Production needs! You seem like you'd be a blast to travel with and kick ass at your job too... Besides.. We already have our "Wicked" commons.. Time for more! Let me know if I can help!

Hey,
Just noticed you were from (or still are) Kansas City...
I work at the Radio Station doing several concerts and remotes I was just wondering if you have some advise to become a manager?
Thanks alot
Hey there Stranger! It has been one busy year for me to say the least! I'm currently out with Boys Like Girls, we're doing a co-headline with Good Charlotte. We will be in Anaheim tomorrow and the wiltern in LA on the 19th. If your in town come out and say hi!
Hey Misty,
yeah those were all one-off's, but I fell the same way about Fear. Jimmy Eat World was cool too 'cause it was on their first big tour in like '93 or '94.
Cheers

Comments About Me:
I'm kinda awesome and rarely ever smell bad...
seriously- I've spent the last 5-7 years on the road in about all capacities and all over the world. I love what I do.
Can provide full resume if needed and an excellent list of references.
This is a video of Damone covering Wasted Years by Iron Maiden. Kinda rad cause I video'ed most of the stuff on the road thats shown-
This is a video of one of the bands that I had on tour with me as Unwritten law's TM. Trust me- you will wonder how I did not murder someone on this tour after watching. The kid with the mohawk was their tour manager- watch the video and you will understand why that fact is important. He went on after this tour to be a very important player on Season 2 of A Shot at Love with Tila Tequila. In addition at about 2 minutes and 36 seconds you can view me with a half a sharpie mustache on my face that I was wrestled to the ground to receive trying to figure out who is able to drive their van and get it out of the way before they are arrested by the oh so pleasant cops in smalltown, washington. I believe you can see me tell the mohawked guy (their "tour manager") that I will kill him right as the video ends. Epic.
