Upcoming Concerts

Here is the Spring ‘08 game plan as of now… Turns out two of my favorite bands are playing in Los Angeles in the month of May: Dream Theater and Rush, and yes, I will partake! The common denominator between these groups is longevity and virtuosity… In my opinion, Dream Theater sets the bar musically and for live performance today (that is, unless Led Zeppelin hits the road again!). Ironically, both bands have just released compilation/greatest hits albums which I’d strongly recommend checking out: Dream Theater Greatest Hit & 21 Other Cool Songs; Rush provided a cool iTunes compilation for early takers of their 2008 Snakes & Arrows tour… doesn’t appear in the normal iTunes catalog unfortunately.

 On the Jazz front, Hiromi is back on the road as is Chick Corea – I plan to take in both of those shows somewhere between here and Europe during 2008! Also planning to see the Stone Temple Pilots show in LA – seems that everyone is coming out of retirement these days!

I am a professional hobbyist when it comes to this.   Though my relationship with the piano began at a young age, I only recently pulled off the gloves to rekindle it and haven’t looked back since.   This was partly inspired by huge advancements in music production technology now available to all  – and from the comfort and privacy of your home!   I’ve never subscribed much to job titles so I won’t attempt to label my genre.  Besides, composing music mirrors life in that there are really only two ways to write a song: your way, and the wrong way. 

Thank you for your interest and encouragement.
