When in Rome, At age 14, I fell into the music scene at the famous Piper Club. I would sneak out at night and hang out stage managing for British Bands, like Lord Sutch. Coming back to the States, I started managing bands, learning to play the guitar, took Music Theory at SF State, joined a couple of bands, and starting a concert sound and production company.
