I tried to surf, but since I live in PA I couldn't surf on the ocean.
I tried to surf the Lakawana River but ended up getting hurt on the
rocks. So now i just BMX.
I really got in to surf music the first time i heard Anthrax's
version of Pipeline, since then I've been hooked.
I play fuzz saturated surf metal. My gear includes a Gibson Flying V
58 reissue, a DeArmond Jet Star, my signature "El Steev-O!" peavy
Milstone 2 Bass, a Dod Ice Box, a Boss Compressor, A Big Muff fuzz
unit, a Digitec RP 3, an ibanez Power Lead, An Ibanez Tube Screamer,
and a Peavy Studio Chorus 210 amp from the early 80's outfitted with
JBL subs.
