First of all, if you don’t know who I am let me explain it to you. I am the sucker they got to come in at midnights. It sounded like a really good idea at the time, trust me.
Now I am sure you want to know more about me because I am The Dude after all. I was born and raised in Wheeling, but as with most of the people in the valley I would tell people who aren’t from the area that I am really close to Pittsburgh. It’s just easier that way.
As far as my education is concerned I went to Wheeling Park High School. My original career path was going to be auto body, but then I needed an art credit to graduate. That’s how I caught the radio bug.
I decided to stick with the radio thing after high school so my next move was to head to West Liberty State College. I started in the communications program, but would eventually end up in the DMD program. I found my way into their radio station within weeks of being on campus. I was actually working for their station my 3rd week on campus till the end of my college career. I did most of the different jobs they had: production manager, music director, and eventually station manager. I changed majors when the college introduced a new program called Digital Media Design. It’s basically half communications and half graphic design. I was a part of the first graduating class from West Liberty University.
When I am not in the studio I am usually being pretty lazy at the house. PlayStation and watching a lot of TV takes up most of my day. I am a big Penguins fan so I watch most of the games at sports bars or a friend’s house.
If its concert season I like to hit up the warped tour, mayhem festival, plus anything else that might be cool to see. My favorite concerts have been Rush and 2008 Mayhem Festival.
Oh and remember: That rug really tied the room together.
Ok fair warning here. This video was sent to me at 1am last night when I was sitting in my office. I could not stop laughing at this one. Thanks to Jerry for the link. Its a good one.
