Gary’s the bottom of the Hollywood Comb Overs. As bassist, he’s responsible for laying it down and keeping time. When he’s not laying railroad ties he has an odd habit of doodling.

I’ve also managed to setup a few “personal” sites that I’ve never categorized properly. I enjoy photography. I write. I play music. I’m a family guy. I have an old VW and a pooch dogging me...
