Hello everyone,
Thanks for taking the time to browse. Come back often, and I'll keep you updated. If anything really sparks your interest and you want to chat, just e-mail me. Just follow the information on the "Contact" page.

Come on out and hear Billy Hector. He's a one of a kind blues guitar phenomenon, and words cannot capture the excitement of one of his shows. You have to see for yourself. I call him "The Professor" because he's taught so many amazing musicians. Just playing with him is a life lesson, and getting called to play with him is a badge of honor for anyone. Just ask Sim Cain, Dan Hickey, Shawn Pelton, Van Romaine, Matt Flynn, Steve Hass, Clancy, Joe Magistro, Nir Z, Billy Ward...and that's just the drummers!

I'm playing bass in the musical Rock Of Ages. The band is: Matt Beck (Matchbox 20), Dave Gibbs (Tom Morello The Nightwatchman), Joel Hoekstra (Night Ranger), and John Weber (Love Janis) . And I can't forget the utility men, the mighty Tommy Kessler from the Blue Man Group, and keyboardist extraordinaire, Richard Maheux. Thanks to Tom and Bob for filling in for me, and giving me a chance to take a night off.

Congrat to my friends Richard Fortus, and Frank Fererer of Guns N Roses on the release of their first album in ....I don't know how many years.

A couple of records that I played on are on sale now. The new self titled album by Maiysha, and Danielia Cotton's latest, "Rare Child". Also, Constantine Maroulis' self titled record "Constantine" is in stores! Listen to the song "I Thought It Was Something", written by myself and producer Marc Copely.

I had the pleasure of playing with the legendary Bill Withers...you know, the guy who wrote such hits as "Lean On Me". To actually play a song like that with the man who wrote it was a truly unique feeling.

Thanks to Gibson Guitars, and Rhythm Tech percussion accesories. Pam at RT took care of me this summer on the Kidz Bop Live tour, and Shannon and Lou this fall with Rock Of Ages. We're gonna have to get a bigger guitar vault... speaking of which...

If you play anything with strings, check out Big Bends Nut Sauce. Stop laughing. it's an amazing lubricant that prevents strings from hanging up in the nut, and breaking in the bridge area. I wouldn't endorse it if it didn't work.

Thanks to Lloyd at Tech 21 for getting me the proper power supply for my original SansAmp Classic pedal. It's seeing action again in the musical Rock Of Ages. The bass didn't quite sound right in the theatre until I broke this baby out. The SansAmp ALWAYS sounds good...

On the Gear page, I transcibed my interview in the January 2007 issue of Guitar World's Bass Guitar Magazine,

I want to give a shout out to Tracy from Sharpie. Thanks for turning me on to some very cool writing instruments. They'll be put to great use. Attention musicians: Sharpie now makes a retractable pen. Wow.....

REST IN PEACE, HIRAM BULLOCK, AND ISAAC HAYES
