My Bio

Gender
Male
Location
Minneapolis
about me
I am an amateur musician, fortunate enough to be surrounded by a wonderful and talented group of people in my band Felahi (felahi.com), and we are fortunate enough to be playing for the wonderful and talented tribal group TNT.

I am a computer geek, database programmer and Linux advocate, and still trying to figure out what I want to be when I grow up.

I am a vegetarian cook, and I wrote a cookbook and website (lbveg.com),

And, I am married to the Most Beautiful Woman in the World. Those of you who have met my wife already know that.

new musical directions (blog entry) Last Spring when I finished up my Felahi CD, I was just starting to explore crossing rock guitar with middle eastern drums and rhythms. I had 3 or 4 leftover tracks that didn't belong on the first album, that felt like the start of a second.

Doumbek Technique and Rhythms for Arabic Percussion, Bellydance, and Drum Circles ( miscellaneous » products ) "Excellent video" I agree on how very good this DVD is. I have been playing for many years, and I still learn a lot from watching it. The technique exercises are excellent, and he shows multiple versions of each rhythm, with the d-t-k notation on-screen for most of... read more

Taxpayers off the hook for GOP convention lawsuits - www.startribune.com/template...his_Story

new musical directions
Last Spring when I finished up my Felahi CD, I was just starting to explore crossing rock guitar with middle eastern drums and rhythms. I had 3 or 4 leftover tracks that didn't belong on the first album, that felt like the start of a second.

I'm picking that up now.

What I want to play with, is crossing different styles of heavy rock and metal guitar over middle eastern drums, with no western trap set. I think the pulse of the guitar could go well with the rhythms.
