Music

I listen to a lot of music, mostly rock and popular songs from the early '60s onward. I enjoy singing, too: in Rock Voices, on Open Mic/Jam Session/Live Band Karaoke nights, and at karaoke venues. I briefly “toured” with Barry Manilow (sang with other Rock Voices singers in his backup choir at Foxwoods in March 2015).

Song of the Day

Starting in May 2015, I began selecting and sharing a song each day on Facebook, Twitter, and YouTube. Here is the list of all my Song of the Day (SOTD) selections to date.

Open Mic/Jam Session/Live Band Karaoke

Monday nights I play keyboard and sing at the Florence, MA VFW Open Mic/Jam Sessions hosted by Greg Reil. It's an informal, relaxed setting that differs every week depending on who stops by to play or sing. Here is a YouTube playist containing recordings from those sessions.

Karaoke

I began singing karaoke in the Fall of 2015 and and now sing karaoke regularly. Here are the songs that I have attempted to date.

The Tiers

The Tiers was a four-person rock cover band operating out of Omaha, Nebraska in the late 1960s. Yes, I was a member, so check them out...

Pinball

Heartland Farm & Horses

Others in my family are into horses.
