Second Career Choice: I have no idea. This is what I wanted to do since I was 15.

Biggest Professional Thrill: Getting to play the Ozzfest, with original Black Sabbath... That was cool, but a lot of cool things have happened over the years.

Worst Gig: Could be that radio show in Sacramento last year.... We flew in from the east coast early as hell, and had to rent gear for the show, and I got a antique ampeg, probably the first one they ever made, it sounded like shit. The sun was shining with no mercy so my basses kept getting out of tune, And the monitor guy was sent from hell. We couldn't quite identify the sounds from the monitors, so we all had to guess what the others were playing. The crowd was pretty drunk and didn't pay much attention, which was good I guess... The show was a nightmare.
