It's September 2008, and now I'm finally getting around to updating this site. Fort Bliss kept me busy! But now I'm in beautiful Columbia, SC, a member of the 282nd Army Band on Fort Jackson. If you are a musician and want to find out more about life in an Army band, you are welcome to contact me through this website, through my email, MySpace, or any other method you prefer. Military musicians get a regular paycheck, with benefits, for playing music! Also, if you are interested in requesting a band for your free, non-profit, public (or military related) event, follow this link, find a band near you (choose your state from the pull-down menu beside Location: and click Search), and then contact them. The process may be a little complicated the first time or two, but there is usually someone in the band or Public Affairs Office who will be happy to help you. Don't worry - it's worth it!
South Carolina is nice, but I miss my adopted home of El Paso, TX.
I'm keeping this site low tech, which makes it easier for me to update and faster for you to download. So enjoy the late 1990's web experience!
In an effort to eventually make this site business friendly, I've moved my Views section to MySpace.com. Don't worry - I'm still a left-leaning Libertarian, opposed to most wars, a fiscal conservative, and support a balanced federal budget and responsible economic policy. I'm also still concerned about how little the average American saves and invests. I don't see how any of these feelings or positions could change in the near future, although I've gradually become more liberal over the past few years. However, you'll have to dig a little deeper (or go on MySpace.com) to see my more specific political views.
I've started selling some things on ebay - currently just old music equipment that I no longer use, but I hope to get more creative. Look for SCTG3761's auctions.
In my music section I have some music scores, mp3s, and links to various files on other sites. You will need Scorch to see the music scores, which is a free download. I have a link to this in the Scores area of the section.
Older versions of this page, from 2005 and early 2006, are available here for your reading pleasure. Again, my political and economic commentary on government policy and current events will continue, but will mostly be on my blog on MySpace under emusician. A benefit of this change is that you can post comments to specific blogs if you have a MySpace profile (which is free).
