3 minute version of the story of my life up until that point...
The nostalgia of looking back at the days when I was still free to roam about like a gypsy, compared to the settled down life-style I saw myself stuck in... But there are always some lessons to learn from all of it...

I was playing in lots of Irish Pubs during this time.

Song for my son Benjamin. He was such a cute and cheery fellow at age 3...

In the 80s movie "Made In Heaven" at one point, this guy who plays an angel angel tells his charge on earth that he's not making any progress, just sort of drifting along...

Between Dec.3, '94 and March 1, '95
On December 3rd, 1994, our daughter Julie-Ann was born.
I actually wrote the first half of this song in the hospital while we were waiting for her arrival.
After 3 boys in a row, she was a nice surprise.
