Well for the past 7+ years I've been a daddy (got one of each), which isn't really a hobby but definitely adds spice and variety to your life. They really dig wheeling, too, which I'm psyched about. :)

Otherwise. I've been playing music since I was four. Piano for 11 years, and guitar for ... 26? 27 years now? (sheesh) My old band put out a couple CDs and we actually played the man stage at Woodstock '99 in Rome, NY to about 50,000 people on opening day. I also played the National Anthem at a Utica Blue Devils (Devils' farm tream) hockey game. :) Now I do sound on the side and just started playing w/ my Dad's band, The Degenerators. My gear:


  • Amps:
  • Mesa/Boogie DC-3 w/ 200w EV Black Widow in an open-backed cabinet
  • 1965 Fender Showman head w/ a BandMaster cabinet stuffed w/ 2x12" Celestion 30s
  • Fender Mustang II (house amp) - modeling amp, seriously impressive software
  • Marshall 15w shoebox practice amp
    Guitars:
  • Parker PM-20
  • Ibanez S540LTD 'Sabre'
  • Charvel Model 3 (American) - hot-rodded
  • Godin LG-XT (electric/peizo/midi-capable)
  • Late '60s Hagstrom electric 12 string
  • Bunger Guitars Custom Shop one-off
  • FrankenStrat
  • Martin D1 (acoustic)
  • 2 build projects
    Basses:
  • Late '60s Hagstrom bass
  • OLP Musicman Bullet knock-off

And I'm an avid motorcyclist - I put way more miles on 2 wheel than I do 4 in a year. Currently in my garage:
  • 1997 Ducati Monster 750 - 1 of 100
  • 1988 Ducati Paso 750 - 1 of 55
  • 1982 Yamaha Maxim 750 (My dad's, but has become a café bike project)

I collect comics, too - for years now, although I took a break for a while because the art & storylines sucked. Mostly X-men & associated titles. I have Uncanny X-men starting around #95 or so, into the 200s (when they started sucking), and picked back up around #260 to present (#540 or so?). Along with a bunch of other ones. I have all the Spawns, all the Savage Dragons (although they've been sucking for a while now too). DC is rebooting all their major lines, so I've been thinking about picking up Batman, but we'll see.

And of course, being a home-owner, especially in a 1910 Craftsman, there is never a lack of something that needs doing. :)
 
A couple pics from the morning ski...the GF driving, spotting and taking pics in the mirror, amazing chick!!

BIKES....

i just picked up my first bike and lovin it. not sure why i waited so long
09' Honda CBR 600rr. i told myself...no mods. but that lasted about a week. nothing performance wise but needed to change up the stock look
that paint looks bad A. nice
that endo looks shaky being on the back like that

Its hydro dip got the whole thing painted for 500 bones cause the guy just opened his business and it was the first sportbike in the valley he had done...after, the style biters picked up the trend...its fun and unique but everyone knows ya when you have custom...the :police: too...

That endo was freaking awesome...there was a delay on the camera so it didnt get the best part...he ended up rolling that endo 180 with me on the back....yea my ass didnt spend much time on the seat but what an adrenaline rush...wooohooo...I got big lady balls but not that big...the best Ive done is little parking lot clutch ups...

Congrats on your bike purchase...good choice and you should post up some pics and show her off...

Oh and second non t4r related hobby would be GUNS.....:naughty:
 
damn you do have some big huevos. i wont be doing any endo or wheelies any time soon. ive barely opened her up, 85mph is fastest ive gone. i know i know i know. weak sauce. i was thinking of doing custom paint too...but i want to keep the atten on me minimal. so black it is.

im going to ditch this windscreen i dont care for it. i like the smoke look but not the double bubble. these are pics after doing the IT and FE kit. before i got my real plates. im going to powder coat the pegs black next and a slip on exhaust and be done

ive only had it about 2 months now and really havent had much need to get on the freeway. 85 was on a country road that was sketch. when i get more comfy ill open her up.
 
A few of the box sets that I collect too. Also have a ton of tour programs that I'll post up soon. Of course all this leans toward classic metal/hard rock.
