The Red Eyed Rounders - Milk River Breakdown 2002 - We started on the streets in Calgary busking during the famous Calgary Stampede. In that time we were playing 4 to 5 hours during the day on Stephen Ave for the work crowds, and playing on 17th Ave from 11pm until 4am for the bar crowds. There was never a better time or place to play the streets. Calgary was the land of the twenty dollar bills! It was really like those people didn't even want them. We hit it off together so well we released an EP called Natural Speed with Joe Face Records in Calgary, opened for the Corn Sisters, and played outside the Calgary Folk Festival until CKUA invited us in to play live at their on sight station tent. One of our busking highlights was playing outside the gates the last night of the festival and having hundreds of people showing up and dancing. We also cleared almost $800 in our case, which ends up being around 4 socks full! We headed back to Victoria B.C. and recorded this full length album "Milk River Breakdown" at Sea Of Shit Studios. We also played many hours on the streets in Victoria B.C., Seattle and Santa Cruz, playing the odd gig inside a venue on stage. Sometimes shutting down the house, as we did at the Poet and Patriot in Santa Cruz, one of our last gigs together....

The Derby - Cyborg Love Songs 2001 - The first real band I was in! Some of my favourite musicians that I still know and will love always. My first real introduction to stage, road life, recording and street playing. Even though I had done small amounts of it before, this is where I really cut my teeth. Touring all over Canada. Our biggest tour was from Victoria B.C. to Saint John's Newfounland and back, over two and a half months. We played the streets and gigs as we went. It was mostly 6 of us and Huckleberry, who was just over a year old at the time. All in a trusty Ford Econoline named Tony. Some of the craziest and best times of my musical life.
