I think Leilani sings better than Pat Benatar does, but I would have boosted my career much higher if I married Pat wink -- no complaints though.

I'm a survivor and a musical chameleon. I think you have to be in order to adapt to the ever changing world we find ourselves in.

I learned to sing lead when we had a hard time finding singers in the band and got pretty good at it. I don't have the pipes to be great, but I'm better than a lot of others. In the psychedelic era when nobody wanted to hear saxophones, I played bass for a living. Learned the flute when Jethro Tull was big. Played disco when it was in vogue. Learned to sequence when bands were being downsized. And so on. Whatever it takes.

I live in a house one lot away from the eastern shore of the mainland of Florida - and it's paid for. I buy new cars but keep them well after they have been paid off. I probably would have made a lot more money if I went to the Electronics Engineering option that I took in college, but I think I'm happier being a musician.

I could do a single act if I had to, I have that much material. But I'd rather gig with Leilani, we have a lot of fun.

No, everybody can't make a living doing music and nothing but music, but some of us can.
