BIO:    Started playing drums in 1st grade, played in school band ‘til soph. year.  Played in garage bands  including... The Syndromes (Bill Corsello/Mike Jags -too serious!), Strawberry Jam (Greg Tusar- are you out there?), and the topper - Syrup of Figs
(Bill Hamler and Steve Gags - legends).  College/post college became known for embarrasing myself trying to get on stage and sing out at LBI clubs - thanks Monte and DogVoices! 

As for AMPD - Joined up with P-Fess and Scott four years ago.  We’ve come a long way!  Soul Kickerz  to Playing Possum to She Said No and finally - AMP’D!  Big thanks to everyone who has been with us along the way - our wives/ significant others, kids,
families, Bobby H. - lifelong member, and our fans who always make it a blast!   Thanks to my partners in crime - Paul, Scott, Art, Ian, and Danny.    Now that was fun!
