Thanks! I've been playing bass for 12 years. Played in a few bands in college, and now am married and have two kids. My son is 11 and is also a bass player, and my 6 year old daughter is getting a junior P/J bass for Christmas:-) I am a designer/art director/web designer as a profession (
http://www.area5100.com), and designed and built the new Lakland site. I am currently working on some print stuff for Lakland, and I am designing all of their new stuff. It is a lot of fun designing for a company you believe in so much.
My latest interests include the spaghetti cat, other furry animals that eat pasta, and long walks on the beach
I should be getting a US Joe Osborn any day now! I have a DPLE II, and have a Shoreline gold Decade (RW, w/blocks), and a Silver JO CS on order.
