One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I played tom drum for Sun Kil Moon at a show in Melbourne last night! As I'm writing this it was last night, by the time someone is reading this, probably a little while ago and will probably seem less interesting to me by then too. I also scaled Mount Doom, ie Mt Ngarahoe in New Zealand.

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm happy to give basic guitar lessons. I would also be happy to teach English because I speak English real good.
