BIO
Hailing from the mean streets of Duxbury MA., I grew up I guess a mix between a slacker and a punk in high school. I went to all kinds of concerts, and partied way too much with all kinds of people, but managed to graduate with decent grades. Once out, I attended Bridgewater State College for a few years. But soon I got tired of the daily grind and needed a change of scenery. I traveled south to Nashville TN. to go to Middle Tenn. State Univ. and hang out with my dad more, who had lived in TN. for years. Only a few months later I once again got tired of my surroundings and decided to move back east. I thought working for a living instead of school would be the way to go. I worked all kinds of jobs, I was a painter, loaded trucks for UPS, dabbled in landscaping, gas station attendant, delivered pizza, drove a truck for a pipefitting company, etc, at you can see, I'm a man of many talents. I'm currently back at Bridgewater State and working for a transportation company during the week.
How I Got into Radio: I took a couple of radio classes at Cape Cod Community College so that I could join a friend of mine who already had a show on 90.7 WKKL at the school. Together we created the best damn college radio show ever, The Trigger and Juice Show. It was a very popular show and we actually won a couple awards. After about a year of being on the air we decided that we didn't want to continue to spend our money on gas to drive from the south shore and not get any money in return for our efforts. So we called it quits, Trigger eventually moved to California, I applied for Pixy and have been here ever since.
Musical Talents/Musical Influences: As a kid I sang in a church choir and took piano lessons, it’s been years since I've done either one. As far as musical influences go, I enjoy a variety of music but my favorite is punk rock.
Favorite Classic Rock Band: Zeppelin or The Clash
Album That Changed My Life: My cousin gave me a copy of Punk-a-Rama Vol. 1 when I was about 13 or 14. It introduced to me to new bands and completely changed my tastes in music.
Favorite Foods: Pizza, Cookies and Milk, all kinds of cereal, Tacos, anything BBQ
Favorite TV Shows: Cash Cab, Seinfeld, Always Sunny in Philadelphia, Daily Show, Curb Your Enthusiasm, The Game Show Network, The News, Antiques Roadshow
Favorite Alcoholic Beverage: When I have money, Newcastle or Sam Summer. When I'm broke, Budweiser or PBR
Job I Would like to Have If I Wasn’t on the Radio: If I had a little more motivation I'd be a writer or a photographer.
Favorite Celebrity or I’d see/read/watch anything this celebrity does: I don't really follow celebrities
Person I Would Most like to Meet Dead or Alive: Bradley Nowell, Joe Strummer, John Lennon, Bob Marley, Howard Stern
