Share the Square!
Itโs release day for The Square Route, a very cool song I wrote with my buddy Cliff Hillis who knocked it out of the park!
We were channeling our inner Nick Loweโs when we wrote it and Cliff nailed it when he recorded it! Great job brother!
Stream and share the Square with everyone you know!
Big Square Luv

I was 11.
(Total loser, living at home w/Mom & Dad, no job, no car, no $$$).
The Beatles release arguably,
The Greatest Groundbreaking,
Game-Changing, Rock Album Ever:
"Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band."
Brilliantly produced by the incredible George Martin.
Ringoโs summer tour starts today and Paulโs album drops tomorrow. Every day Iโm grateful to be a Beatles fan witnessing these guys still doing their thing

My longtime pal & fellow longtime DVE DJ,
Val Porter posted an image on FB of her holding a DVE bobblehead of me.
True Story:
The Goodwiil Store on Banksville Rd had 3 of my DVE bobbleheads next to each other on a shelf.
They sat there for TWO YEARS.
