Love the Cure, Habs and Chelsea FC. Proud of my Italian and Canadian heritage. Some of my favorite films are Fargo, Trainspotting, Scarface and Goodfellas.

After 16 years, @TheCure have finally released a new song, and it's a stunner; hear the luxuriously bummed-out seven-minute reverie "Alone"

Wrong! Jeeze guys, do better. Yes my contract is up in September, and No, I am absolutely NOT DONE. Having the best matches of my life and hopefully, God willing I will get to retire on my own terms, respected with a full heart. Hopefully Negotiations go well because I am damn worth the world.
The only things that matter to me are: taking care of my family first and foremost, and finishing up when I am ready, and how I envision my retirement.
So hold off guys, This biz is my life and I love doing it for you, while still having fun and able.
#KeepSteppin and thank you all for your continued love and support!🤘🏼❤️
