So, I’ve written a book.
Having entertained the idea for years, and even offered a few questionable opportunities (‘It’s a piece of cake! Just do four hours of interviews, find someone else to write it, put your face on the cover, and voila!’), I have decided to write these stories just as I have always done, in my own hand. The joy that I have felt from chronicling these tales is not unlike listening back to a song that I’ve recorded and can’t wait to share with the world, or reading a primitive journal entry from a stained notebook, or even hearing my voice bounce between the Kiss posters on my wall as a child.
This certainly doesn’t mean that I’m quitting my day job, but it does give me a place to shed a little light on what it’s like to be a kid from Springfield, Virginia, walking through life while living out the crazy dreams I had as young musician. From hitting the road with Scream at 18 years old, to my time in
Nirvana
and the
Foo Fighters
, jamming with
Iggy Pop
or playing at the Academy Awards or dancing with
AC/DC
and the Preservation Hall Jazz Band, drumming for
Tom Petty
or meeting
Sir Paul McCartney
at Royal Albert Hall, bedtime stories with
Joan Jett
or a chance meeting with
Little Richard
, to flying halfway around the world for one epic night with my daughters…the list goes on.
I look forward to focusing the lens through which I see these memories a little sharper for you with much excitement.
